about

Inspired by The Pure Gold Baby, by Margaret Drabble.

lyrics

So much help around
We don’t need to complicate it Swimming through the muddled few Protected by each other now
Everything and nothing to blame Need someone to put it on
Don’t take the kettle o
Change can hurt everyone
Inside a child’s mind
Clocks keep turning, some unwind
She circles you within her arms
A story of a life we try to pull from harm Time gives and time takes
Altering after mistakes
Comfort, the safe and warm
Adventure takes a di erent form
Talking where buildings lay
Memories from another day
A glimpse of gold through a door Of all the lives you wrote it for
She circles you within her arms
The story of a life we pull from harm
