Heather Nova - Ear to the Ground Lyrics

I've been wondering
Waiting for something to give
I won't be a heroine
I'm just looking for something to live by
And there are lesions in the soil
And there pockets of pain where the shadows lie
And there are voices in the ocean
And there is something in the sky

A mother should say
A father should say
Oh you
Look up, Look down
Keep your ear to the ground
It's washing over me

It's spinning, it's spinning under me
And am I looking up at the angels
Or am I really looking up at the clouds floating by?
And when I say I'm listening
Why is it I only hear you when you cry?
A mother should say
A father should say
Oh you

Look up, look down
Keep your ear to the ground
A mother should say
A father should say
Oh you
Look up, look down
Keep your ear to the ground
