Simon Joyner - Catherine lyrics

Catherine Beautiful mother of inseparable brothers Return from the ocean bring us seaweed for flowers There's no trespa**ing where there are no borders Catherine Only child and lonely orphan Restless mother of restless children Daughter of the carpenter and the good mother, Mrs. Mims And haunted by the cancer that crept in a took them Catherine Breaking bread in the market and filling your pockets With crumbs for the birds who returned for spring While your children disperse with your words on their wings Catherine Holy vision of inseparable children Return from across the great ocean of loss Leave sorrow on the banks throw your tears to the sharks We'll be there to receive you when you come back to us We're the only children of the lonely orphan Catherine
