Dan Wolf - Echoes (Four Women) Lyrics

INTRO
The shadows of time
The shadows of space
We echoes in time
We echo in place

VERSE ONE
Four Women
Came to me inside my dreams
My heart stops at the spot where they came to me
Walking arm in arm
Whispering inside my ear
A future messenger of hope
It's my greatest fear
That voices lost generations
In a fog
It's undeniable
That memory and truth is unreliable
But there are narratives and stories that are still untold
As you trust in me
You're letting me
Carry your soul
And what I do not know
Humbly I bow my head in reverence
And ask you for your blessing in the present tense

CHORUS
Four Women
Echoing like Aunt Sara
Similar struggle different color different era

VERSE TWO
Batsheva
I call you Isabella in my heart.
You know you lit a spark
Right from the start
I play my part and find the art in your chosen name
I see you with the name at birth
I know it's not the same
It's the middle name I gave to my daughter
As a father
Your survival's living in her body too.

Emmie Emmie
Let me say the same of you
The troublemaker into mischief keeps on shining through
With a rebel yell you come back to earth
Shy and reserved comfortable in silence you don't need the words
You're a piece of abstract art, we can feel it
Touching us with sunshine from the garden of a healer
So many time with words as signs
Emotional concealers
I try to find the perfect way to express my inner demons
Wake up from this timeline as if we're dreaming
I hide behind these petty rhymes just to hide my feelings

Selma seldom am I in a place without the words
My impulse is a noun but I fight to live the action verb
That's how you live your life
Young and girlish in outside
Strong and powerful
All the time
And with those sparkling eyes
You're so colorful
Filled with wonder
Self esteem from public speaking to eating ice cream

Judit you know you're so curious and interesting
Our conversation wasn't long but it was medicine
I see you through the lens of generations in my pen
I cannot wait until the time until we meet again

CHORUS
Four Women
Echoing like Aunt Sara
Similar struggle different color different era
