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 hands 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 the 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 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

There are thoughts like these that keep me on my feet

that keep me on my feet
