A hand-tied bunch from the garden, A stone smoothed by the love of a hand, Sea glass of blue and green, Sharp edges gone now by the shape-shifting sands. Give anything, but give. Feathers found in the forest, A cross made of rushes, A stick, weathered, not broken, Give anything, but give. A penny from your pocket, Hair for the locket, A book, dog-eared and tired, That might just hold a mystery unfolded. In my pocket I found from you The sweetest treasures wrapped in leaves. We followed the trail into the light And searched the forest far and wide. And all the while, side by side, Gathering our scattered thoughts. You have my heart, what will I do? For now we’re coming home. In my pocket, I found from you A handful of our memories. We followed the trail into the night And left the forest far behind. You have my heart, what will I do? For now we’re coming home. Written by Cara Dillon & Sam Lakeman
