Cradle Of Your Smile

Petra Jean Phillipson


Be near silence sings to me 
Been alone too long 
Without a tiny glimpse of he 
Share your luck for one day 
And I'll carry on through dark mornings without you 

I'm kissing lonesome in the face 
Every night he sits with me 
And tells me of forgotten grace 
Plundered through another phase 
Barricades are down 
So what can you bring me 

The push becomes a shove 
For the love that never comes 
But the thing we all await 
We all await 
I long to be nowhere 
But in the cradle of your smile 
In the cradle of your smile 

I'm missing somewhere else to go 
Where nothing else exists 
I'm looking to be outside my soul 
Pictured love in many ways 
Tried my hand at tricks and played 
But the talents of ten men can't keep me 

I'm walking a path that's very fine 
Though Solis is here 
On the ladder that I climb 
I'm swimming in the purple haze 
Gathering stories along the way 
Soft side come please me 

The push becomes a shove 
For the love that never comes 
But the thing we all await 
We all await 
I long to be nowhere 
The push becomes a shove 

Still I cannot tell 
Still I cannot tell 
Still I hold my tongue 
Still I hold my tongue 
The push becomes a shove 
Love that never comes 
But the thing we all await 
We all await 
I long to be nowhere 
But in the cradle of your smile 
In the cradle of your smile
