Shadows on the water
From a memory that turns inside
From the last time I saw you happier
Than I've seen you in a long time
And all these faces, oh how they adore you
With every blessing, every strength of a storm
And it seems to me it all worked out so different
Funny how distance and time they don't change at all
So may your worries, may your worries
Never fall to loud
And may you stay here, may you stay here
Happy in your own skin
On the ninth cloud
Cold to every warning
Oh these ships that passed through, years before
And bolder now, than a brand new morning
With the Sun on your face
The bruise and the breaks of these careless arms
So hold your body, hold your body
Strong in these winds that blind
And may you stay here, may we sit together when we're grey and old
On cloud nine
This life will move you with every step outside
It's alright, it's alright
My arms are open wide for you
This life will move you as graceful as the tide
It's alright, it's alright
Loosen the fears that bind you
Loosen the fears that bind you
