about

A song about the different selves I change between, I suppose like we all do; my funny self and my serious self, my critic and my ally, my responsible and my reckless, my uncertain and my intuitive. a changing of the guard maybe meaning a changing between these selves. and a gratefulness for all of the moments along the way.

lyrics

I made a promise to a stranger

To be a perfect kind of slave

Before the century’s dead,

you’ll get it back, is what she said,

Because you gave it all away


Do you know how much I love my mother

And I wear my father’s father’s hat

It fill my head with softness,

I am the keeper of this

Safe haven that I always have


There is a passage to a perfect place

There is a changing of the guard but I keep the same face

There is a changing of the guard but you misunderstood

I will not beg you, it does me no good


You see I’m learning how to listen

To different frequencies of sound

Sometimes they’re high up in the mountains

Sometimes they’re way down underground


You know the present holds the picture

It comes full circle like a wave

I saw this written in the scriptures

I saw this written in your face


There is a passage to a perfect place

There is a changing of the guard but I keep the same face

There is a changing of the guard but you misunderstood

I will not beg you, it does me no good


You know I’m always changing colours

Sometimes yellow often blue

But I’m grateful for the journey

Because it brought me round to you
