I met "merielle" while writing the lyrics to this song. I was inside a room strumming away and there she came to the window, and she brought sun.

Merielle
Merielle said to me “You should come in”
And laughs when the lightning hits
Goes with the flow and quickly starts to flip
Merielle likes to walk on her hands
She’s always fixing plans
Her other half loves bubble baths
Her left side rocks a pink anklet
Clutching navy blue
She’s a kid coming through
There’s an inlet in the back and a castle too for
Merielle just play yourself and Merielle be a kid and show and tell
Let it all fall down to make a splash well
Merielle
Merielle always lies face down
She carries a compass around
In her pocket she shows that she knows her south
Merielle races with the air she exhales
She blows out like a whale
And wishes things were never even there
She wants things that were never ever there
Clutching navy blue
She’s a kid coming through
There’s an inlet in the back and a castle too for
Merielle just play yourself and Merielle be a kid and show and tell
Let it all fall down to make a splash well
Merielle
