Child from Shine by Dahí Jim and The Adelaide Band

Had about enough of sorrow
And winter’s sting in spring
Had about enough of doubting
Everything that’s good in me

And so it’s one for the demon
But it’s two for the child
Of mine, Oh mine.

Had about enough of waking
To this empty room alone
Had about enough of waiting
For some saving grace to just come along

And so it’s one for the demon
But it’s two for the child
Of mine.

Had about enough of pretending
That I’m alright when I’m not alright
Had about enough of living and breathing
Like a human vice both day and night

And so it’s one for the demon
But it’s two for the child
I said it’s one for the demon
But it’s two for the child
Of mine.
