Alexi Murdoch: The Light

I see my brother he is walking in the sun

His back is bare, he carries no burden for anyone

I see the island, the silver line

Brother how you shine

And all around the light

And all around the light



Now I see my father, he's so small against the sky

The child, the tree, the shadow's on his eyes

He doesn't know who he's supposed to be

Father you are free

And all around the light

And all around the light



Now my mother she is crying on the stairs

Her hands are leaves, the light is in her hair

As she prays she thinks that no one heard

Mother you are a bird

Mother you are a bird

And all around the light

And all around the light

And all around the light

All around the light
