lyrics

There's a low sun in the sky for us, my love
The shadows bend their backs to cover us
And the beckoning moon through the trees
Casts a line to me: It's time to go

I take the path that finds the Westward cove
And break my voices on the silent stone
While the Ocean weaves me words
Throught the wreck's ribs and burns:
To breathe or not to breathe

I watch the waves and all that I gave
Wash away from shore again
But now the sun's in the East
And with the greatest of ease
She lights the way and draws in the tide
You precious living thing
Bones, blood and man
There's winter in the wind
And warmth in your hand.

I love these alternative versions of the 'Murmuration' songs. The stripped down instrumentation creates an intimite vibe, while the poem intertwines them into a concept-like album. As a result, this is a new album that stands out on its own and that is more than just a complement to 'Murmuration'. 'Ordinary' already was a beautiful song, yet 'Extraordinary' adds something extra for me. And because the piano intro somehow calls up some recognition. Another beautiful album by Emily Barker! rbergman
