Ivadell you held is in your arms that day But look at how tiny me n' Matthew both were You so strong and full of grace
What stories these pictures can tell Of days when we bathed brightly in the sun The medicine of laughter everywhere
Ivadell I held you in my thoughts that day And wish that they were arms when you were frail And passing from this place
[ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/for-ivadell-lyrics-mineral.html ] What stories your paintings told boys Of hills too steep to climb ascended And hearts that were not afraid To flap their wings and fly
But you are safe now and effortlessly breathing Where new weather will fall on you Your fears break like waves Foaming into themselves Disappearing into the sea
