Rock Me from Cradle by Starling Arrow
"Rock Me is a lullaby written to my mountain home, a song of place, a song of nurture, a song of being still long enough to love where you stand. It's a timeless love song of sorts, written to a forested mountain right outside my window that will long outlive my worried mind. A song of geological belonging, of dirt worship and the strength one can gain from the natural world. When I stopped moving so fast I realized the intricate and intimate beauty of the things around me and garnered great strength in watching them change throughout the seasons and withstand the tests of time. Humans are so noisy. This song sings to the utter peace in knowing you can simply step outside and find right relationship with the natural world." ~ Chloe Smith

Lyrics
Heaven, horizon on high
Faithful, firm faultline
Rock me when I'm gone, rock me when I'm home
Shelter, my shadowed soul
Mountain, hymn to the night
Summit, your unshakeable life
Rock me when I'm gone, rock me when I'm home
Shelter, my shadowed soul
The harvest is knowing that I can always go to your green hills
Solace when you say you’ll be here much longer than I will
The harvest is knowing that I can always go to your green hills
Solace when you say you’ll be here much longer than I will
The harvest is knowing that I can always go to your green hills
Solace when you say you’ll be here much longer than I will
Ooh Ooh
Hmm Hmm
Ooh Ooh
Ooh Ooh
