Someone To Follow

Aoife O'Donovan

Compositor: Aoife Maria O'donovan

When I look in the glass, I can see you there
I can see you around my eyes
So I'll follow the stars in the eastern sky
Coloring the horizon

With the Moon in your teeth like a piece of cheese
It's crumbling everywhere
And you're gathering kindling and blackberries
You send up your gilded flare

I know whichever way the wind blows, you're gonna face it
Stand tall, you can be someone to follow, you're gonna make it

On the night you were born, I cradled you
I held you in my arms
And with every planet in Capricorn
I knew you'd sound the alarm

Always fighting the good fight, baby
You're picking up whoever's down
And you're giving them words for their weaponry
You wear the mother of exile's crown

I know whichever way the wind blows, you're gonna face it
Stand tall, you can be someone to follow, you're gonna make it
You're gonna make it

I know whichever way the wind blows, you're gonna face it
Stand tall, you can be someone to follow, you're gonna make it
I know whichever way the wind blows, you're gonna face it
Stand tall, you can be someone to follow, you're gonna make it
You're gonna make it
You're gonna make it
