| [00:00.00] | Guiding her into dream time |
| [00:31.56] | Following lights in her eyes |
| [00:36.84] | This living behind's got her frightened |
| [00:41.85] | So I'm here and I'm working all night |
| [00:50.46] | How is she not breaking down? |
| [00:52.95] | Oh God I feel her shaking |
| [00:59.94] | Try as I might to provide her light |
| [01:02.43] | In the end it's she who's breaking |
| [01:09.21] | I'm holding the choice as she grows life from it's stem |
| [01:17.43] | Is it better to say not now when I'm trying learn: yes? |
| [01:25.32] | Cos I'm dreaming of bouncing feet and your motherly smile |
| [01:33.42] | But when you're sleeping so far away I can't feel what's inside |
| [01:41.97] | How am I still holding on? |
| [01:44.55] | Oh God I hope I am holding |
| [01:51.30] | She'll try and describe what my strength provides but I fear my strength is failing |
| [02:00.57] | If I could change my mind |
| [02:03.51] | I would change |
| [02:06.57] | What's the change for the better |
| [02:11.34] | For a child who learns not to cry? |
| [02:16.98] | And to the boy who relies on his anger: |
| [02:22.41] | You'll survive but you won't feel exchange |
| [02:30.96] | And why all these doubts? |
| [02:33.72] | And what are all these doubts? |
| [02:40.59] | I see in her eyes that I'm holding her fine but all I'm hearing is doubts |
| [02:50.37] | Even as water's crushing over my head |
| [02:58.14] | And the rhythm that I would slow is picking up it's pace |
| [03:06.36] | I'm learning from older shames as I'm watching them die |
| [03:14.34] | And I'm still hoping to see her smile in the morning when we wake |
| [03:22.80] | Now that I am waking up |
| [03:25.44] | Oh God I hope I am waking |
| [03:32.19] | Though I'm overwhelmed at times I find that I'm less afraid of change |
| [03:46.94] | Change all the time |
| [03:52.53] | I'm still finding what's sure |
| [03:54.99] | And not getting lost in my mind |
| [03:57.54] | I know I can try |
| [04:03.57] | Needing my own |
| [04:05.64] | But still |
| [04:06.03] | Getting lost in her eyes |
| [04:08.43] | And hoping it's time |
| [04:14.55] | Wide eyed |
| [04:20.87] | I get wide eyed |
| [00:00.00] | Guiding her into dream time |
| [00:31.56] | Following lights in her eyes |
| [00:36.84] | This living behind' s got her frightened |
| [00:41.85] | So I' m here and I' m working all night |
