Did I do The Right Thing

Sinead Lohan


with dark red berries on the branches 
i'm further than you think 
next to station platform people 
we're all waiting for a train 
sometimes not even i can tell you 
i'm nearer than you know 
behind your eyes a burning memory 
let the fears of broken pieces go 

i fill my bag with clouds and rivers 
emptied the castle of the crows 
i left the sand and sea forever 
to be exactly here now 
did i do the right thing 

it's in and out of time you move me 
i'm scattered all around 
i was in a light and then you threw me 
like a shadow to the ground 
sometimes not even i can tell you 
i'm nearer than you know 
behind your eyes a burning memory 
let the tears of broken pieces go 

i fill my bag with clouds and rivers 
emptied the castle of the crows 
i left the sand and sea forever 
to be exactly here now 
did i do the right thing 

i'd forever talk to you but soon my words 
would turn into a meaningless ring 
and deep in my heart I know there's 
no help i can bring 
but everything passes everything changes 
just do what you think you should do 
and someday maybe who knows baby 
i'll come and be crying to you
