Lyrics

I lay in her womb
On this side of the mountain
Where shadow and light
Twixt night into day

I lay in her womb
In mountain spring water
Surrender to this
Is all She can say

Chorus
The bloodline of family
Gives birth to the body
But that gives no right
To pass on the pain
To the loved ones we meet
On a path lit in moments
Where the sparks of
our hearts
Celebrate

I lay in her womb
On this side of the mountain
She cradles me floating
By juniper tree

I lay in her womb
In mountain spring water
Silt tickles my toes
Moss blankets my feet

Chorus

I lay in her womb
On this side of the
mountain
Where shadow and light
Twixt night into day

I lay in her womb
In the mother of mothers
In the safest of soils
From the past I am free
It's time, it's time, it's time
it's time, it's time, it's time

It's time to give birth in
this womb
On this side of the
mountain
