The sea said goodbye to the shore so the sun wouldn't notice The seaweed that wrapped its arms around you
The carpet on my cheek feels like a forest And I run through the tall trees with your hand chasing me
The books that I keep by my bed are full of your stories That I drew up from a little dream of mine, a little nightmare of yours
To be asked to take this plunge, to forgive and forget And be the better man, to be a better man, to be a better man
So love me mother, and love me father, and love my sister as well
The cat's silhouette as big as a monster in this concrete jungle With street lights hanging their heads
So make all your last demands for I will forsake you And I'll meet your eyes for the very first time, for the very last
So love me mother, and love me father, and love my sister as well So love me mother, and love me father, and love my brother as well So love me mother, and love me father, and love my sister as well So love me mother, and love me father, and love my brother as well
I met a man today and he smiled back at me Now there are thoughts like these that keep me on my feet, that keep me on my feet
