Dear child, they're asking us to move
|
I watched her taking off her shoes
|
(Let the shore tide take you in, let the shore tide in)
|
I'm weary, I'm not quite rested yet
|
This could be obvious to you
|
(Let the shore tide take you in, let the shore tide in)
|
In this short time we've been treading air.
|
|
I've been trying to reach you,
|
But my extension cord wouldn't reach that far
|
Now you've lost your chance
|
I've been patiently waiting
|
The indicator light is flashing on
|
Now you've lost your chance
|
|
Dear sleeper, you couldn't find a better bed
|
I loved to watch the way you grew
|
We're out, we're out the door
|
We're out, we're out the door
|
In this short time we've been treading air.
|
|
I've been trying to reach you,
|
But your extension cord doesn't reach that far
|
(Doesn't reach that far)
|
(Reach that far)
|
I've been patiently waiting,
|
The indicator light is flashing on
|
(It's flashing on)
|
(Flashing on)
|
|
In this coma, sleepless dancing
|
We've been treading air.
|
|
I've been trying to reach you but
|
Your extension cord wouldn't reach that far,
|
(Doesn't reach that far, Reach that far)
|
I've been desperately waiting
|
The indicator light is flashing on,
|
It's flashing on,
|
Flashing on.
|
|
I've been trying to reach you,
|
But your extension cord wouldn't reach that far,
|
Wouldn't reach that far,
|
Reach that far.
|
|
(Doesn't reach that far)
