lyrics

Camel in the Needle’s Eye

It’s never been any different inside
The darkness and the light, it still resides
A glint of your eye, a crease on your face
exaggerate what you think of this place
… a little more convinced

Something brave shakes through your skin
when the fright of what lies ahead begins
The leaves blowing in the backyard you rent
make me think of the yard light on the broken barn and fence
… a little more naïve

Couldn’t we have it just the way that makes sense?
What’s the trick?
The camel in the needle’s eye just winks
as it walks through and all that’s left’s a footprint
… oh, oh …

about

Thea Ennen Wisconsin

I sing and write to make a sense of my existence - my place in this world. Each song is a specific journey down a road. They are my magic carpets to see again a memory or expectation. I use songs - melodies and words - to guide me, like a rudder through the waters of life. .

I think I sing in public to reassure this kind of journey- to never lose touch with what is instinctual.

-Thea Ennen
