Jewels - Tommy
I stepped into your light
You stepped into mine
And I thought about you
Every day of my life
Sister of the river
I know you made a million moons
You came to me so quickly
You're leaving me so soon
And I don't know how to feel today
And I don't know what to say
I dreamt you like a sleeping cat
Of air and fire
I said let you lay
Though I know tomorrow you're going away
I thought about your life and I learnt why
You painted me whine
You above patus of atua
In the sky
We danced in mud as you loved my sister
Then we played and shone in the garden
Although we both missed her
You drove me home I felt like I needed you
I held you when I could I cared all I could do
I fell through the tidal whisper of your heart
I swam oceans of love
Just to take time back to the start
And I don't know how to feel today
And I don't know what to say
I dreamt you like a firefly dancing in light
I said let you play
Yes I know tomorrow you're going away
Hey hey don't cry now just 'cause I'm sad
Once bad things have happened
They don't seem so bad
And I've loved you only for a half moon
As much as I ever had
When I see you dancing
On that mountain in summer
I'll be so glad
It just that
I don't know how how to feel today
And I don't know what to say
I see you like pounamu blessed by the river
Should I let you lay
Though I know tomorrow you're going away
To me I'm like pounamu blessed by the river
Should I let you lay
