i'd came to see you in the morning sunshine
saltwater dripping from your hair
ten thousand leagues of love and sheer devotion
what bubbles under breathes for air

i'd like to see you crawing from the shadows
i'd like to see you colouring the air
the darkest hour comes before the sunrise
the darkest hour comes before the sun

command a son and thou shall have refusal
you sold the honey to buy coal
and every squirrel shares a pearl of wisdom
higher the tree, greater the fall

i'd like to see you crawling from the shadows
i'd like to see you colouring the air
the darkest hour comes before the sunrise
the darkest hour comes before the sun
