Dear Child

Dear Child

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

(Reach that far)

I've been patiently waiting

The indicator light is flashing on

(Flashing on)


Dear sleeper, you could've had the 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)
