Lyrics :
I woke up at the darkest hour
Every light upon the shoreline was out I gazed out into the deep blue
As the thunderous waves roared
Ooooooooooo
In the black of night
I wouldn’t be taken aback
If the water came up and swept us out to sea Ooooooooooo
In the black of night
I wouldn’t be taken aback
If the sun gave up and never brought the day
The heavy rain poured down
The sky electric with the boom and rumble And, in nerves I counted silently
Between the sight and the sound
Ooooooooooo
In the black of night
I wouldn’t be taken aback
If the water came up and swept us out to sea Ooooooooooo
In the black of night
I wouldn’t be taken aback
If the sun gave up and never brought the day
In the dimmest light of morning
I found a mourning dove
Paloma rode the wind to where she lay Silent as a stone
Ooooooooooo
In the black of night
I wouldn’t be taken aback
If the water came up and swept us out to sea Ooooooooooo
In the black of night
I wouldn’t be taken aback
If the sun gave up and never brought the day

Beautiful song and beautiful video. I like the bittersweet tone of this clip.
To me, it shows how malleable we have to be as mothers and fathers. Raising kids is often about putting aside things you need or desire at the moment and making room for your children and for the connection they are longing for, here and now. It will not always be that way, they will grow and long for connections outside family, outside you. It's an investment to let these kind of moments happen and they are so brief and precious, like childhood itself. Thank you Alela ! Love frome France

How are you doing Alela it's been years since I listened to your songs and the voice is still amazing

My daughter’s name is Paloma. She’s away for a month for holidays. So much joy to discover that song. Alela Diane is one of my favorite singer. 🤍

Just heard this on brookdale cc radio in the car. They always have good stuff. This song really hit me a certain way, took me someplace else.

Alela this video makes me weep because I remember your emigre video with your precious baby and that video moves me so much. As a mother myself and watching your girls do your makeup like my son does mine, just so lovely that you have these memories. Of course I absolutely love your music and the stories behind your songs. Be well and thank you♡

[patterrito]

Love it! You have a great make up team!

[jattdachannel]

[nightjarnine]

Very reminiscent of "Down by the River" by Neil Young.

Nice though.
