Description: 5 min. — Built around the ostinato “The deep blue, the deep blue”, this song is about the delicate walk between our fears and our sense of awe, or wonder – and trust in love. The chorus “when we are born under the sky…” is taken from a poem I wrote when I was 17. It was just after I’d looked up into the darkest, most sparkling sky of stars one summer night. The spoken word can be sung or spoken physicality of expression is key. Make it your own!
