Joëlle Smidt - My Kid

When I was born I was complete
Little lights and figurines
I took myself out to sea
What good'd be there and next to me

So much to give and so much to say
My hands still warm from the fire you made
When I was born I was complete
And oh my momma she loved me

Now hold me tight
I will watch how you dance through this night
Now now be right
I am my own prince of thieves, my own delight

Watch, watch, watch, watch

Now now be right
I shall see how your pain makes us fight
You are my sun, you are my pride
You are my love, you are mine When I grew up I was afraid
To lose my gold along the way
So I took my hands and made a pact
To never give in to those forces that wreck

So much I lost in so little time
But my hands were still warm and now, so is my mind
When I grew up I was afraid
And oh my Lord, he kicked me down

Now hold me close
I will laugh as I see how my infirmity grows
Now don't lose hope
I am my own queen of new and my own chaste pope

Ooh ooh

We spend our nights in harmony
And live our days as lovers
We can build this comely
We'll reign as our mother taught me
We can be whatever
Guided by the light in your eyes
The light of our lives, the light
