Into The World

(Rory Faithfield)
2009
Rory Faithfield

Written by Rory Faithfield in Vasse, Western Australia and Dublin, Ireland  during April/May 2009

She went into the world from whence she came
Into the world today
From this seaside moonlit town
Built on sand and made of clay
The waves came crashing in
And washed it all away
Into the world from whence she came
Into the world today


Into the world from whence she came
Into the world she went
To the sound of breaking glass
That seemed to represent
Old photographs and memories
And letters that she sent
Into the world from whence she came
Into the world she went



Into the world she went today
Over the border into the land of come what may
I watched her from the other side
I watched her make her way
Into the world from whence she came
Into the world today


She went into the world from whence she came
Into the world today
From this seaside moonlit town
Built on sand and made of clay
The waves came crashing in
And washed it all away
Into the world from whence she came
Into the world today
