|
If he could breathe then he would feel so well |
|
And not locked up inside this prison cell |
|
Another accident complacency |
|
And now he's questioning a truth believed |
|
A precious memory from so long ago |
|
Push come to shove and now he won't let go |
|
And he sees this world through cellophane eyes |
|
It's almost like he can feel my lies |
|
So please you're not alone |
|
I caught him out in the freezing snow |
|
I've been his friend |
|
It's hard to tell |
|
You're hardly old enough, so teach him well |
|
In agony a mother seeking help |
|
A son astray as far as I can tell |
|
A month is gone without a word to speak |
|
Afraid and lonely on this windy street |
|
Saving face and shame from strangers by |
|
The choice is made and only God know why |
|
And he sees this world through cellophane eyes |
|
It's almost like he can feel my lies |
|
So please you're not alone |
|
I caught him out in the freezing snow |
|
I've been his friend |
|
It's hard to tell |
|
You're hardly old enough, so teach him well |
|
So please don't leave it's your eyes, they're deceiving you |
|
For all eternity, the truth revealed in you |
|
For all eternity, the truth revealed in you (repeat) |
|
So please you're not alone |
|
I caught him out in the freezing snow |
|
I've been his friend |
|
It's hard to tell |
|
You're hardly old enough, so teach him well |
|
Teach him well. |
