lyrics

If I Ever

In fields of green we’re rolling,
looking up at the clouds.
Building bridges and hidey holes
in snake-infested surrounds.

If I ever did go back there, I’d spend all my time under the stairs.

You played in the sea,
I buried my head in the sandy delf.
Today it would seem more hairy-
I peel the couch off myself!

I had a feeling it would come back to bite me on the bum.

Shaking flying hands mid-melee,
Taking hits in my stride.
Making my demands as I pray
not to be burned alive.

I’m ready to take any fall, I wrote the writing on the wall.

When the heads are rolling and there’s no one to call in,
It might be some kind of fun.
I could bathe in it or run.

Tears blinding my eyes, I’m running
to the storm on the bay.
Waving the crash and the sun in,
Then wishing them away.

If I ever have asked for it, I’d be the first one to admit it.
