Selah Songtext

von Decomposure

You were dipped in liquid silver
When they lifted you above the turquoise sheets
You made a plaintive sound while we held hands
They set you down between our faces
It was true -
Your mom started crying, i admit i teared up too
That was how we first came to meet you

You'll reach out and grab my finger
Though i know that's just a reflex thing
You wake up every few hours
And your tired mom gives you milk and sings
But one day you'll want food
After that, before you know it,
You'll be off to school
You've got so much learning left to do

(Selah)

You don't understand a word i say
But sometimes you'll smile anyhow, without your teeth
Your feet are soft and smooth
Because they've never touched the ground
You've never had a bruise
Your eyes grow wide and shine
When something new comes into view
It's a mystery and everything is new
You've got so much life ahead of you
