Brazzaville — Earthquakes-long version

Earthquakes-long version

Drifting through the cosmos they enfold you
The stars are like a billion flakes of snow
A tiny melody within without you
Now it seems it's time for you to go

Go now honey we'll see you later
Don't be frightened by the world
Earthquakes, murders and alligators
They can't hurt our little girl
Don't be frightened by the world

The hospital it smelled like disinfectant
Florescent lights were too bright for your eyes
Your didn't make a sound when the doctor slapped you
Just listened to your teenage mother cry

Go now honey...

Your mama did the best she could to raise you
But she was just too young, still running wild
Alcohol and motel rooms and strange men
The judge said it was no place for a child

Go now honey...
