Polaris

On a high

tekst: Janine Beens | muziek: Janine Beens, Jan Willem van Delft & Wilkin de Vlieger

up on a high

so afraid of heights though

equally scared to be down and out

 

near the treeline

past a view to die for

she has her house

moved in a while ago

 

up in my safe place

up in my safe place

I am free

 

now she cannot get down

for some milk and honey

for down there could be giants on a hunt

 

eagle offered to carry her

but she protested: what if I fall?

 

up in my safe place

up in my safe place

I am free

 

well, maybe there are giants

but there’s also me

you’ve been out there running

let us drink and  eat

I long for you to see it

walk the earth and feel it

till your body knows it

till your heart knows

I am free

 

I am a safe place

I am a safe place

you are free

 

free to soar, free to try, free to fall

free to try, free to fall, free to soar
