  • I lost my beautiful Grandfather in England at the beginning of this year. His name was Kenneth, and he was wonderful. For anyone dealing with grief and loss right now, there is no wrong way to feel. Take your time, and be gentle with yourself. Time is the great healer, and the memories are yours to cherish forever. Sending you love, you’re not alone. ✌🏽❤️

    LYRICS:
    Picked out a cloud outside my window
    Looked like a butterfly in spring
    It flew to your side the day that you died
    Came back and told me everything
    Drove through the fields and they were frozen
    That was their way of letting go
    Ink Spots and roses are what we chose and
    I sang a song to send you home
    They don’t know your name but I’ll tell them about you
    The world looks the same we’re just stuck here without you
    I won’t look down cuz it hurts
    Eyes on the horizon again
    Where all of your purple birds are flying to find you again
    I dream of porches and breezes blowing
    And hearing whispers in the wind
    God knows where I’ve been or where I’m going
    We’re only stardust and love in the end
    I’m getting bolder as I get older
    But I still haven’t changed the world
    Run into my arms
    Cry on my shoulder
    Cuz i’m brave but I’m still just a girl
    And I’ll pitch a tent at the base of this mountain
    Keep climbing uphill thirty more years and counting
    I won’t look down cuz it hurts
    Eyes on the horizon again
    Where all of your purple birds are flying to find you again
    Take me back to the days when the earth was heaven
    The sun and the salt on your skin
    You smile like a child with a drink in your hand
    And tell me I’m beautiful again
    But don’t make me wait for a lifetime to find you again
    I won’t look down cuz it hurts
    Eyes on the horizon again
    Where all of your purple birds are flying to find you again
    I won’t look down cuz it hurts
    Eyes on the horizon again
    Where all of your purple birds are flying to find you again
    Picked out a cloud outside my window
    Looked like a butterfly in spring

    This was the song I re-played over and over during the loss of my nana. It was a very intimate loss, in which I connected this song to. I remember sitting in the dark on my mother's bed while she cried, and started playing music. This song came on, and we both agreed that it resembled her. Through our tears we embraced this song for what seems like a somber moment; but it gave us relief. I thank you for sharing such an intimate song for me to connect to. It still gives me the feels when I listen to it many months later. Love from me for as long as I'll be listening to this song again.

    This reminded me of my grandma on my dad's side who passed away two months ago from covid. She really loved to sing and this felt like a song she would love too. I miss her, but hearing this made me feel more at peace.
    Thank you again for the amazing music and work you do, you always ending up making my week ❤️

    It is so clear you sang this beautiful tribute from your soul. Please know, your grandfather would be so proud of you, in general, but especially in this moment. Know he is with you in spirit whenever you see a butterfly, or find a feather ...(from a purple bird or not... :) And look to the sky for those beautiful birds ~because I'm sure he's looking out for you. Sending you a huge hug and I pray for time to ease your loss. Love & Light
