lyrics

Little White Seeds
Dave Gunning/ Karine Polwart

He let in the day like he'd seen it before
Just like he'd seen enough and he was ready to go
And then she came running blowing weightless and free
Like the little white spinning angel wings on the little white seeds

She had air in her fingers she had hair in her eyes
It was the colour of amber they were the colour of skies
She said, "papa I'm flying can you fly like me too"
He said, "you take my hand and we'll travel the whole world together" And he gave her his wings as he let the last strings go forever

She let in the day like she'd seen it before
Just like she'd seen enough and she was ready to go
She looked to the horizon where the fields had released
All those little white spinning angel wings on the little white seeds

She had years in her fingers she had tears in her eyes
They were the colour of amber they were the colour of skies
In her mind she is flying blowing weightless and free
Her hand reaches to hold on to summers still golden in her mind Then she gives up her wings and she lets the strings go for the last
time
