[Verse 1] Our stucco arms are forever tied loose Your velvet touch sends me back to the moon Daddy’s coming home but mammas looking guilty Brothers in the basement ’til he's standing Wolf child’s heavy with the weight of the world Stowing all his love in an adolescent girl [Chorus] There's sunlight dripping off the apricot tree Lost to the night tide growing in me Singing to the drunks like our momma did All we ever knew is what we didn't have
[Verse 2] Never really knew if I did something wrong All I ever heard was \"it wasn't my fault\" But what good is truth if you don't understand Nothing but a pair of calloused hands?
[Chorus] There's sunlight dripping off the apricot tree Lost to the night tide growing in me I’ve been saying to ya I’ve been saying to ya I’ve been saying to ya I’ve been saying to ya Singing to the drunks like our momma did All we ever knew is what we didn't have I’ve been saying to ya I’ve been saying to ya I’ve been saying to ya I’ve been saying to ya
[Bridge] There's sunlight dripping off the apricot tree Lost to the night tide growing in me I’ve been saying to ya I’ve been saying to ya I’ve been saying to ya I’ve been saying to ya
[Chorus] There's sunlight dripping off the apricot tree Lost to the night tide growing in me I’ve been saying to ya I’ve been saying to ya I’ve been saying to ya I’ve been saying to ya Singing to the drunks like our momma did All we ever knew is what we didn't have I’ve been saying to ya I’ve been saying to ya I’ve been saying to ya I’ve been saying to ya
