Light and Easy - Amanda Jenssen

Mother, I worry the sun will shortly set

If we don’t hurry and put on our regret

You are my weather, it’s easier for some

Float like a feather and quietly become

Light and easy

Naive and unarmed

They can’t reach me

If I find a way to keep you warm

Father, I wonder what nature has in store

A little thunderful message from the core

Cut off my anchor, I won’t need it no more

Ten thousand troubles waving from the shore

Light and easy

Flourish every day

Nice and breezy

Humming on the songs we used to play

Light and easy

Not the time to tell

Nice and dreamy

They can’t hear my sorry marrow yell

Light and easy

Naive and unarmed

They still reach me

I must find a way to keep you warm

Light and easy

Every sun must set

I’m completely

Trapped in all the things I can’t forget

Trapped in all the things I can’t forget

Trapped in all the things I can’t forget
