Björk Solstice song lyrics

When your eyes

Pause on the ball

That hangs on the third branch from the star

You remember why it is dark and why it gets light again

The earth (like the heart) slopes in its seat

And like that it travels along an eliptical path

Drawn into the darkness

An unpolished pearl in sky-black palm of hand

Flickering sun-flame

And then you remember

That you yourself

You are a light-bearer, a light-bearer

Receiving radiance from others

Flickering sun-flake

Unpolished earth in the palm of hand
