lyrics

A hand print on a cavern stone
By an old man who was not alone
Painting with his open eye
Saying “here am I”

The language of that dream was gone
All the whispered songs
Walla leialanon

I was learning how to read and write
Then bath time on a Monday night
Little footprints on a woolly rug
Yelling “next!” from a towelly hug
Then at fourteen
In an away game for Argyle
“Ow, my knee”
Couldn’t play for a while

The language of that dream was gone
All the whispered songs
Walla leialanon

In the poem of that dream
Did I catch a glimpse
Of where the whisper came from?
Walleialala

As all the squirrels and the bees
And all the branches in the apple trees
At every cockadoodledoo
Can up and rise, open their eyes,
Then so can I, and so can you.
