Harbour

Gebaseerd op een gedicht van Karin van der Laan

I'm flying high, it's in my blood, always has:
a high flying bird

Stranded and crashed, away from my haven,
this safe harbour
Gone;
I hurt myself, damaged goods
reaching the shore of yet another coast

Framed between there and here

And I'm kissed by sunlight as I slowly drift
on waves and dreams I've dreamed before

Loose, but am I really free ?
Am I really here ?

All hawsers loose, I stumble and fall;
the salty sea, weeping with me

It feels and moves me and sounds like music
when it rolls and rolls and I
run back into the sea;
the ice cold water brings the silent longing
I take back with me

Framed between there and here

And with me all these stories from overseas;
I carry all of them to you
and love, so lovingly I love, my love
and weep and weep and weep

Loose, but am I really free ?
Am I really here ?
Am I really here ?
