With a story-telling vocal that deviates from demanding presence to ethereally haunting sojourns to the stars, this hypnotic loop-based song is evocative as it is enchanting. Crossing genres from fireside folk to fiery Bjork-esque choruses, it's bound to have you up dancing as Melody's produced beats kick in.

LYRICS:
Carry you, will carry you
Carry you, will carry you
If only we could pause the time, and stay lost here in this long cold night
But the dark is the darkest, just before the first light hits home
Oh, home, home
We know that you'll soon be, finding your place in the starry sky
Just as soon as the long night ends
And the first rays of morning light hit home
Oh, home, home
Oh
Overflowing spring
All the wild flowers are growing
Golden Acacia
Will carry you
To the stars
We know that you'll soon be, leaving us
For your place in between the
The moon and the stars will be glowing
Just as soon as the morning comes
You'll be going home
Oh
Overflowing spring
All the wild flowers are growing
Golden Acacia
Will carry you, will carry you, will carry you
To the stars
To the stars
To the stars
Will carry you home
