about

Plain Sight is a call to action, a love letter to the earth, and a promise to a close friend all at once

lyrics

My bonny dear
A question I have for you
Tell me, what is the key
To protect the one you love?

The oak and ash, the rowan and yew
This stunning view we will lose too soon
Take my hand and see, through the trees
The world we live in

Oh my love
Tell me what breaks your heart now
I’m learning to listen to you
And I grow because of this

Your heart is split, it lies in two
And neither parts are strong enough
What can I do, the sleep I lose
For you my darling dear

My bonny dear
Please remember we survived these years
Celebrate, the change that we made
Observe and replicate

You taught me to look to appreciate
Whenever I need to fall in love again
And I see what we have, right now
And the future that we’ll bring

In our life
Take a moment now to nurture
All these ways, to save and collect
The lives we can protect

Ancient woods, sacred trees
Spirits in rivers and valleys
And so I swear, to learn with care
And to open my eyes

To the truth in plain sight
