I have a plane One of the few with roundels on its wings A lullaby for me and you When it flies high, it sings
Rock me to sleep with que sera Dear Mum do you suppose? As I feel my eyelids close The other side is not so far
I dug a hole under the ground Made myself a den It's there that I can be found Not if you return but when
There's a place, a place called hell I've spent some time there In the dark I cast a spell To bury all of my fears
Oh Dymphna! Oh Dymphna! Oh Dymphna! I would that I could spell your name
Once I fell from a great height "Are you ready? I've come for you" A voice spoke from a pool of light "Not yet" I said, "I've got some things to do"
All this time I've been making dens And I'm still making them now I know, I know I can never make amends But I've got to reach you somehow
I can tie the laces of my own shoes And I can count up to 32
Oh Dymphna! Oh Dymphna! Oh Dymphna! I would that I could spell your name
I'm sorry, there are so few words One day I ran out And I waited a long time - they never came back I see you often in everyday places And I want to call out but I can't find the words I can't find the words I can't find the words They won't come.
