Needle in the back says I love you baby
|
One was a lion
|
And the other was a flock of birds
|
Can't tell my head from my heart much lately
|
One gets light
|
And the other falls down like her
|
|
And it always seems like the longest dream
|
When you're all alone
|
Is he coming home
|
|
Round and round and round they fly
|
The needle dips into the dye and I'm yours
|
This is just the reason why
|
The lion dies and no one tries to call
|
|
But here comes the rain again
|
Falling down like words of avoidance
|
I said you're old enough to know this
|
So why do you let it get to you
|
|
Try to call but no one nobody noticed
|
I said you're old enough to know this
|
So why do you let it get to you
|
|
Your father left here when you were still ten
|
With nothing but your brown eyes looking for a painted wing
|
He said a¢æ©«Honey take the kids to your mother's, I
|
Think I'm gonna lose control and I don't know whya¢æ?
|
|
And it always seems like the longest dream
|
When you're all alone
|
Is he coming home
|
|
And here comes the rain again
|
Falling down like words of avoidance
|
I said you're old enough to know this
|
So why do you let it get to you
|
|
Try to call but no one nobody noticed
|
I said you're old enough to know this
|
And here comes the rain again
|
|
He's just running late again
|
I try to call but no one nobody noticed
|
I said you're old enough to know this
|
So why do you let it get to you
|
|
Come falling down like words of avoidance
|
I said you're old enough to know this
|
So why do you let it get to you
|
|
You're old enough to know this
|
You're old enough to know this
|
So why do you let it get to you
|
You're old enough to know this
|
|
You're old enough to know this
|
You're old enough to know this
|
You know who you are
|
