lyrics

(Verse 1)

Don’t speak I already know
Your eyes, your body tells me so
Comfort me, never ever let me go
The time has come
Ascend to your new home

(Chorus)

I was born of Apollo
I was born into a wishing well ohh
Protector of the sea
Daughter to the east
Where I wait for you, for you

(Verse 2)

We close our eyes, (echo: close our eyes, pain inside, use to be)
To minimise,
The pain inside
When we hear your name
How you used to be
Was to be
Storey’s true, Why you?
X2

(Bridge)

Why now?
She had everything going
Her life was just starting
But how?
All my people left wondering
How could this have happened
What now?
We miss you, strum and we’ll keep singing

(Bridge 2)

No more, no more sleepless nights
No more, no more stepping up to the corrupt and
No more lullaby’s, only bitter sweet goodbyes
I said no more
No more and, no more sweet surprise and
No more jamming on your prized guitar and
Our heart sacrifice
Who will fill this void inside

(Chorus x2)

Close our eyes, pain inside, use to be (adleb) x2
Don’t speak I already know…
