May from Chromatic Radio by Saint Lapu

May
I heard the wind whisper your name
Cut through the haze and the stillness
Go on wander, roam freely
Your roots will always be here where you left me
Things will never be the same
But that's OK

May
Wherever your restless feet might take you
Move with the grace of the night
Go on shine, you're ready
I'm always here to help you if you let me
Things will never be the same
But that's OK

We left home but we were never alone
So we built a new one
Across the sea for freedom and peace
For you, possibility

Come what May
I thought I was prepared for you to fly
Away to the dreams that you dare
These tears now are more joy than grief
But it didn't stop raining until Tuesday
Things will never be the same
But that's OK

We left home but we were never alone
So we built a new one
Across the sea for freedom and peace
For you, possibility

May
These bones they don't move like they used to
I'm so proud of the wings you've grown into
It's your time now, use it wisely

May
Do you know the meaning of your name?
It's permission to simply be
Use your voice now, be heard and seen
And sometimes won't you sing a song for me?

Things will never be the same
But that's OK x 3
