Nora wrote this song after flying across the American Midwest and her plane ran into a thunderstorm.
She sat down with the Daily Mail to explain how her songs are conjured up from the most unexpected moments:
It was frightening, but also very beautiful. I started singing, ‘The prettiest thing I eve...
The prettiest thing I ever did see
Was lightning from the top of a cloud
Moving through the dark
A million miles an hour with somewhere to be
So why does it seem like a picture
That's hangin' up on someone else's wall?
Lately I just haven't been myself at all
It's heavy on my mind
And I'm dreamin' again
Like I've always been
Way down low
I still know
That the prettiest thing I ever did see
Was dusty as the handle on the door
Rusty as a nail stuck in the old pine floor
It looks like home to me
Now I'm dreamin' again
Like I've always been
Way down low
Thinkin' of the prettiest thing
Dreamin'
Dreamin'
