Song for Zula

I've always wanted to take the time to illustrate moments from some of my favorite songs... Well, I've got some time today... Last year the song on Spotify that came up for me as my #1 most listened to song was Phosphorescent's "Song for Zula" live at the St. Pancras Church so I started there. That one always wants to make me instantly fall into sweet, healing-grief, and empowered lyrical dancing.
Here is this beautiful song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGcxGMkjbiM
And here is what I illustrated.
"You see, the moon is bright in that treetop night
I see the shadows that we cast in the cold, clean light
My feet are gold. My heart is white
And we race out on the desert plains all night
See, honey, I am not some broken thing
I do not lay here in the dark waiting for thee
No my heart is gold. My feet are light
And I am racing out on the desert plains all night"
