Clear off the kitchen table
Off to bed kiss goodnight
When you were born we named you
Brightest diamond hills so high
You can have whatever you like
As the kings will find their coffins
So you'll rise
Covered in grace and alight
As you burn run for your life
Outside your bedroom window
Painted faces shining eyes
Call to you like a mirror
Hidden power, hidden light
You can save them
You can raise them up
You can tame them
You can tie them by the hands
Go to the midnight garden
Naked in the moon's spotlight
Stand on the giants shoulders
Distant sunrise, sight sublime
Clear off the kitchen table
Off to school now wave goodbye
When you were born we named you
Brightest diamond hills so high
