Jamies Elsewhere
A Slave A Son
When I continued to run awayWhat kept me in your hand?Did you ever think your flock would strayOr that they wouldn't understand?When you said"Wait here, 'til I return with your brother That was lost to the ways of the world"It was your love that said"You're no longer a slave, but a son"It was your love that said "You're no longer a slavebut a son, but a son"Catch me in your arms like stars in the eyes of telescopesAnd once there I rest Never let me goNo, never let me goWhat could I learn by fighting the fire with matches and gasoline? Oh how cruel and melodramatic are we for trying to make sense of all of this? When I hear you calling I swear, I swear I'll run to you Just don't let me fall back through the clouds Catch me in your arms like the stars you hold in your hand
