[00:17.17]when your clothes they all shrink
[00:21.48]and your forehead's pressed to the cool of the sink
[00:25.58]do you find yourself suddenly there
[00:30.07]in the woods with your yellow bear? oh
[00:42.49]and if we step through the nursery door
[00:46.77]and if the snow falls like before
[00:52.01]in flakes as big as your hand
[00:55.65]do we even care where it will end? no
[01:08.56]when the past proves tough to resist
[01:13.36]you'll keep a loose grip on my wrist, won't you?
[01:20.90]yeah if the ghosts and the living can't coexist
[01:25.84]you'll keep a loose grip on my wrist, won't you?
[01:39.24]fractures in plaster, oh
[01:43.87]fractures in plaster, oh
[01:47.87]Queen Elizabeth, what would you ask her?
[02:03.52]in 1922 if the puzzled boy in the books was you,
[02:12.06]where would your comfort be?
[02:15.90]up the sturdy trunk of a chestnut tree?
[02:28.54]well there's no such haven here
[02:33.21]but no one will notice if we disappear
[02:37.41]to the window at the top of the stairs
[02:41.26]with a view to the woods
[02:43.31]and the clearing of forgetful airs
[02:53.73]when the past proves tough to resist
[02:58.37]you'll keep a loose grip on my wrist, won't you?
[03:06.16]and if the ghosts and the living can't coexist
[03:10.81]you'll keep a loose grip on my wrist, won't you?
[03:24.12]fractures in plaster, oh
[03:28.20]fractures in plaster, oh
[03:32.16]Queen Elizabeth, what would you ask her?
[03:45.06]fractures in plaster, oh
[03:48.95]fractures in plaster, oh
[03:53.03]Queen Elizabeth, what would you ask her?
