Daughter Dow
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If I had only one
One more day to live
I'd sit in the sun
And trace my fingertips around everyone
Every heart that ever lost and found me
I'd sleep in the shade
I'd watch my mother make her pink lemonade
While my father gives the garden a spray
And I'd look at how this face has weathered
Cause life's been tethered down
Like a storm
Like an ancient window waiting for a storm
For a home
For a hand to come and cut the rope away
Oh, will I ever be that brave?
If I had one more day
I'd eat some ice cream
Lick the bowl till it was perfectly clean
Have one last hurrah on the old tire swing
Dip my toes in as I cross the water
Only daughter down
Like a storm
Like an ancient window waiting for a storm
For a hope
For a hand to come and cut the rope away
Oh, will I ever be that brave?
If I had one more day
Down like a storm
Like an ancient window waiting for a storm
For a kiss
For a second chance to feel like this
Like a storm, like a storm
Like an ancient window waiting for a storm
For a home
For a hand to come and cut the rope away
Oh, will I ever be that brave?
If I had one more day
