lyrics

Yoghurt Pots

Sunflower seeds raised in yoghurt pots, name blurred into watermarks, decorate the plant pot.
Over time, with water and sunshine, flowers mark her journey to the sill.
Here’s the thing ‘bout travelling: things change, things change.

Walk to school holding hands that’s the rule, walk you into class you’re watching me.
Over time, holding hands it’s just a bind, conscious independence – that’s what I see.
Here’s the thing ‘bout travelling: things change, things change.

Your head is turned, now for the road you yearn, new places, new lives you interweave.
While you’re gone I’ve been moving on, weaving bright patterns on the loom.
Here’s the thing ‘bout travelling: things change, things change.

You’re doing fine each mountain you climb, new pages of philosophy intrigue.
Over time my music and a rhyme, so many roads just travelling ‘til I’m old
So many roads…
