We were so small when we met
|
I still remember, I'll never forget
|
Two button eyes and a tail
|
I couldn't tell female or male
|
I caught your eye through the glass
|
I waved with my flipper
|
You looked away kind of shy when you smiled, my world broke in two
|
|
From my womb with a view I can see everything
|
From my womb with a view I can see everything I need
|
I look at you
|
Because it's all I can do
|
From my womb with a view
|
|
Sometimes a whitecoat would pass
|
We'd share a look when they'd tap on the glass
|
I learned to wiggle my toes
|
You would laugh bubbles out your nose
|
Sometimes the lights would go off and there'd be a moment
|
Whenever I felt alone or afraid I always had you
|
|
From my womb with a view I can see everything
|
From my womb with a view I can see everything I need
|
I look at you
|
Because it's all I can do
|
From my womb with a view
|
|
What I am trying to say
|
I think today is a very big day
|
Something is calling me on
|
Maybe by morning I'll be gone
|
Maybe when we get outside we'll both still remember
|
Maybe someday we will meet on the street and I'll know it's you
|
|
From my womb with a view I can see everything
|
From my womb with a view I can see everything I need
|
I look at you
|
Because it's all I can do
|
From my womb with a view
|
