In the mornings, do you miss her?
Laughing with your sisters
At the kitchen table when you
Woke up later than you meant to
Always missing something special
Catching up to someone who you thought
You might know
Where did it go?
Slow down
There's no going anywhere now
Watch the sun go down in Kingston
I'm alone and listening
To the birds ring in the evening
In the same house in your twenties
Making something out of nothing
Thinking, breathing, feeling, learning to
Slow down
Slow down
Here I am now
Just looking out
Spend your long days in the country
The kids and you the blue sea
Build a house and help them move out
When the rooms are bursting at the seams
Too small for the family
You once knew only in your daydreams
Slowing down
Slowing down
Do you know how to be proud?
Slow down
Slow down
Do you know where you are now?
