lyrics

Puddles - Amelie Bottrill

VERSE 1
Breathe out. Count one, two, three
Breathe in. Do it gratefully.
That life. What’s it worth?
What’s one puddle on the earth?
What about one girl?

CHORUS
How I long to take her pain
Make it nothing more than rain
Upon her nose. Between her toes.
Make Puddles grow
And all her Warriors would stay strong
If I held magic
In a song

VERSE 2
She’s packed to fly a plane again
It’s magic how the ground descends
It’s enough to hear her laugh
To see the stars fall in love
With Eileidh’s World.

BRIDGE
Her gown – it glitters and touches her toes
She looks she’s wandered from her favourite shows
But she is much stronger than she even knows
A battle inside her wherever she goes
A battle inside her wherever she goes

CHORUS
How I long to take her pain
Make it nothing more than rain
Upon her nose. Between her toes.
Make Puddles grow
And all her Warriors would stay strong
If I held magic
In a song
