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 meThe 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 forgetAnd be the better man
To be a better man, to be a better manSo love me mother and love me father and love my sister as wellThe cat's silhouette - as big as a monster
In this concrete jungle with streetlights 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 lastSo 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 wellI 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
