BETH ORTON
"Someone's Daughter"
(Ted Barnes / Ali Friend / Beth Orton)

I wanna sit and talk and laugh with you as the day ends
I wanna see your smiling face before the new day begins
You'll never know what it means to see the sunlight in your hair
And dancing everywhere

I wanna shout about it
But I keep quiet about it
I wanna laugh about it
But I don't joke about it
I wanna live without it
But I can't do without it

I'm someone's daughter, are you somebody's son?
Can I ease your pain till the morning comes?
I'm no one's daughter, I belong to the sun
Gonna ease your pain till the morning comes

Keep looking for the reason high and low to let it go
Keep losing my mind looking for the peace that I'll never find
I wanna know how it feels to be the sunlight in your hair
And dancing everywhere

I wanna shout about it
But I keep quiet about it
I wanna laugh about it
But I don't joke about it
I wanna live without it
But I can't do without it

I'm someone's daughter, are you somebody's son?
Can I ease your pain till the morning comes?
I'm no one's daughter, I belong to the sun
Gonna ease your pain till the morning comes
