Beth Orton Someone's Daughter
I wanna sit and talk and laugh with you as the day ends
I wanna see your smiling face before the new day begins
You never know what it means to see
To see the sunlight in your hair and eyes and everywhere
I wanna shout about it
But I keep quiet about it
Wanna laugh about it
But I don't joke about it
Wanna live without it
But I can't do without it
I'm someone's daughter, not a son but a sun
Can I ease your pain till the morning comes
I'm no one's daughter revel on to the sun
Gonna ease your pain till the morning comes
Keep lookin' for the reason
high and low to let it go
Keep losin' my mind
lookin' for the peace that I'll never find
I wanna know how it feels to be the sunlight
in your hair and eyes and everywhere
I wanna shout about it
But I keep quiet about it
Wanna laugh about it
But I don't joke about it
Wanna live without it
But I can't do without it
I'm someone's daughter, not a son but a sun
Can I ease your pain till the morning comes
I'm no one's daughter revel on to the sun
Gonna ease your pain till the morning comes
