Sarah Slean – Bonnie’s Song

Innocent Sunday morning

As plain as the Sunday before

I thought as she told me her story

I don’t think I can hear these anymore

Charting a map of land mines

Asleep in the settling dust

How come we never remember

How many times you picked yourself up

Hey that’s the way to go

We need to know pain to grow

But you’re right it’s a long way home

By the light of eve

Broken and bold

I am reminded of Bonnie

When the day breaks into dark.

I think there’s nothing more beautiful

Than a face that has come so far.

Hey that’s the way to go

We need to know pain to grow

But you’re right it’s a long way home

You’re the light of eve broken

You’re the bravest girl in the whole wide world

Light of eve

Broken and bold
