Untangle

 


written, performed, produced & mixed by Gaynor Perry



I held you close, I let you go
Catching spiders in a glass 
They mapped the contours of my face
During the night
While sleep washed my raven heart
Lily white

I held you dear
I let you disappear like dandelion seeds
On a single breath
It’s for the best
We were enmeshed

My life is small 
It’s like a prayer
I’ll walk barefoot down to the sea
We toil, toil, toil, toil, toil

And then we will be free
So please untangle me

I held you close, I let you go
Watching spiders in a glass
I hope you found somewhere sublime 
To spin your webs
And your heart is overflowing 
With happiness

I held you dear
I let you disappear like diamond dust
Do you know where you are
In relation to the sun and the moon
And the earth

My life is small 
It’s like a prayer
I’ll walk barefoot down to the sea
We toil, toil, toil, toil, toil

And then we will be free
When you untangle me
