Lyrics

My daughter is up and dancing Feeling the pull of the tide Whirling out onto the dance floor Caught up in this wild ride She wiggles and she sizzles In a hair tossed twirl of delight She is her own mega watt beacon Tearing up the darkness into light Just like a woman electric Here nobody feels any pain All the joy of all the music All the wonder of a bloodstain We say yes All day it threatened to rain And my tongue stayed stuck You painted hope while you were underground You paintеd a latter I wrote down secrеts I imagine them feeling my aches It is so much to want something only for yourself Tell them why I have been hiding for 4 years Soon it will be just me and my longing again I will remember whose child I really am And what I am sovereign to It will be time to begin And I will be free Nature bestows on us all A master internal clock A sleek and slippery timepiece With no way to make it stop Fundamental to a woman's life The convergence of music and blood And here it all came together In a fantastical flash flood
