The Pattern Maker is a little song that we wrote about unconditional love...

lyrics

The Pattern Maker

***

When I was young i'd watch you gently carve the world in wood
Arched over in your jumpers
But now i'm all grown up I see your vows and your heart
Laid down for another
I thank you for that doll's house, i'm sorry it got stolen, again
I saw how you held her when she had forgotten our names

When I was young i'd write to you as often as I could
Your letters are my comfort
But lately I've found myself constantly moving and losing our friendship
Oh Pattern Maker, your finger prints are in my veins
I saw how you held us when we had forgotten your name

Carve me a window inside of your mind
I ache from not standing up tall
Those paper tigers, they're smaller than spiders
Grandfather pass me your tools
Grandfather pass me your tools

It's been a while since we've sat with beers on the wall
The phone calls that i've missed
And the days we'd spend walking around in the garden
'Til I felt embarrassed
Oh colours of Eden, i'm losing teeth in my dreams
Teach me to be still
Grandfather rest in peace
Rest those knees
