Evergreen and Wild

[Verse 1]
Bare feet on the cold stone
Laugh lines in my bright eyes
I’ve got fire in my small hands
Chasing dawn across the sky
Songbird in my chest now
Shakes the dust right off my soul
I am bone
I am laughter
I am young and I am old (hey!)
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you hear it in the river
All the secrets calling me?
Every ripple
Every shiver
Sings of everywhere I’ll be
[Chorus]
I am evergreen and wild
Dancing storms into the ground
Every heartbeat
Every mile
Turns to drums and thunder sound
From the mountain to the sea
I will sing my name out loud
I am evergreen and wild
I am small and I am proud (oh, I’m wild)
[Verse 2]
Braids full of the green leaves
Moss soft on my bare knees
I’ve got pockets full of daylight
And a map of crooked trees
Songbird on my shoulder
Spins a story just for me
I am bone
I am breathing
I am root and I am seed
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you feel it in the meadow
All the colors on the breeze?
Every shadow
Every rainbow
Spells a promise I believe
[Chorus]
I am evergreen and wild
Dancing storms into the ground
Every heartbeat
Every mile
Turns to drums and thunder sound
From the mountain to the sea
I will sing my name out loud
I am evergreen and wild
I am small and I am proud (so proud)
[Bridge]
Ooh
My fire’s a gentle glow now
Soft as rain on my skin (ooh-woah)
Every tear becomes a river
Every loss lets light pour in
I am bone and I am starlight
Songbird
Teach my heart to fly
Sea-salt on my lips and laughter
I was born to kiss the sky (hey!)
[Chorus]
I am evergreen and wild
Dancing storms into the ground
Every heartbeat
Every mile
Turns to drums and thunder sound
From the mountain to the sea
I will sing my name out loud
I am evergreen and wild
I am evergreen and wild
(Oh I’m fire, I’m bone, I’m a songbird free)
(From the roots to the rolling sea)

High-energy Celtic-pop crossover with female vocals; bodhrán and big floor toms driving a jig-like groove, bright tin whistle and fiddle hooks over warm acoustic guitar. Verses stay nimble and airy, pre-chorus rises with stacked harmonies; chorus explodes with claps, gang vocals, and a soaring top line. Bridge pulls back to harp and soft pads, then full band returns for a final, anthemic refrain., soft
