Things I've Forgotten Along the Way

from Channeling by Daniel Goldstein and Sara Umansky

/

lyrics

He doesn't care how I wear my hair,
or the length of my nails.

'Tis but a child's heart,
I wear on my sleeve,
like a child I believe.

When you marry,
I'll see you off,
you're no longer a child,
you're a wife.

Maintain, sustain me,
with your warm embrace,
under your wing.

And her hair was like a fence of barbed wire,
or a knot of stringed thorns with the hurt of desire,
and I rush my branch against this field of fire,
it is stung, and it's torn,
but the bird was just observing,
she wanted to see if a lesson he's learning,
so the bird hadn't flown down at the sound of his yearning!

In the end I'll be like the rest of them,
I would twist and break,
be chained and partake, partake,
the sky would open and the ground would break,
my alliance with My Shepherd they'd attempt to take,
tempt a heart devout and valiant,
with jewels and what not, but I'm insipid,
my alliance with My Shepherd they'd attempt to take.

about

Daniel Goldstein and Sara Umansky Ra'Anana, Israel

The Folk duo of composer Daniel Goldstein (b. 1999) and violist Sara Umansky (b. 2001).
Their songs, influenced by classical music, as well as by The Decemberists and Roy Harper, and employ lush orchestrations, are each like a basket of homemade baked goods: comforting and made with love for appreciating stomachs... or, well, ears.

'Small, modest and beautiful' - Guy Tene, Lahiton, 30/06/2016
