Krista Detor — All of the Laughter lyrics

Lyrics

All your old lovers are airborne now
Dry bouquets, wedding rings
Float away, pretty things…
And the river you crossed is an ocean now
Drank a town and a factory
Drank the ground, brought you to me…
And I wish you
Wings that will flutter in the deepest water
Somebody to stay by you near
And all of the laughter, happy ever after
And all this, a happy New Year
And some that you love may be airborne now
See them fly, give them wings
Say goodbye, lovely things…
Somewhere a sun has gone nova now
Somewhere something bigger is shining now
A light in the dark, someone stretching her arms
Going out and forever, forever…
I wish you
Wings that will flutter in the deepest water
Somebody to stay by you near
And all of the laughter, happy ever after
And all this, a happy New Year
The pictures you painted are burning now
Canvas bare, slate is clean
Fire and air, blue and green…
And I wish you
Wings that will flutter in the deepest water
Somebody to stay by you near
And all of the laughter, happy ever after
And all this, a happy New Year
And I wish you
Wings that will flutter in the deepest water
Somebody to stay by you near
And all of the laughter, happy ever after
And all this, a happy New Year
For auld lang syne, my dear
For auld lang syne
We’ll take a cup of kindness yet
For auld lang syne
