And I remember when you said he was scared to have children... scared to show them this world... I said, "then we′ll take in 20... kiss them when their heads shake kiss them when things get cold... They're on Lake Michigan... you told me that you′ll love me, even when I was old... That Christmas when your dad came home, I'm trembling in the bathroom praying for your heart of gold... Come back to me... please stay with me... please come back my little lamb, I miss holding your hands X2

I cannot, cannot explain... my dreams of dogs with two faces and our names.
Oh and everything... everything it has to change, I just keep wishing that, wishing that it was the same.

On Sunday sitting by your mom... we're laughing in the aisles, laughing in the hands of God... she told me this has got to stop, I′m crying on her shoulder, crying for the things you′ve lost. That night you'd almost given up, I′m talking with your sister... talking bout the way you shine... Rachel, where did we go wrong? I wish we would've waited, wished we would′ve turned God's eye... Come back to me... please stay with me... please come back my little lamb, I miss holding your hands X2

I cannot, cannot explain... my dreams of dogs with two faces and our names.
Yes and everything... everything it has to change, I just keep wishing that, wishing that it was the same.

And what was is dead and gone... and no two cells are alike... and our hearts are growing strong like a sea of muddy life... and no ghosts will find us here... in the places we have been... with the takers and wheels, we′ll be running.

There are no clever words, there is no poetry, it's how I feel!
It's like a stomach wound, it′s like your dying words, it′s like an Indian Summer, it keeps hanging on... X2
