LYRICS

Last night I dreamt I died
Died out in the rain
My brother’s there with me in pain
Couldn’t jump up from the train
Tracks and all that we’d become (became)
Argue who’s her favourite son
Maybe those who gave a lot
Are the ones who end with none

Only love can cause this ache
Only you could make me wait
The weakest left out in the mud
Try to crawl from where they’ve come
I can’t seem to find this place
That we made up when we were kids
I can’t seem to forgive

Only love can cause this ache
Only you could keep me straight
I’m the weakest on these streets
A flying pig, a happy me
I can’t seem to find this place
That we made up when you left home
I don’t seem to know

Last night I didn’t dream at all
Broken spoons, painted walls
Jumbo jets, short and tall (small)
Landline phone, no one to call
Up and tell them who I am
Wonder if I would ask Sam
Or Julia, or play my hand
In these woods, this boy will stand

Only love can cause this ache
Only you could make me wait
The weakest left out in the mud
Try to crawl from where they’ve come
I can’t seem to find this place
That we made up when we were kids
I can’t seem to forgive

But I should try
Oh, but I should try
But I should try
Sometimes
