I want a child that never grows

And a love that'll never

Get too old

No slow days,

There's an everchanging pulse

Busy nights, the brightest lights

You get your cake and eat it too



I want to wake up to parades

And neon billboard signs

Where the colours never fade away

It's the happiest

Of all memorial days

A slow retreat, a fast defeat



If you're still alone

I'd like to come back home

I'd like to come back home

If you're still alone

I'd like to come back home

I'd like to come back home

If you're still alone

I'd like to come back home

I'd like to come back home

If you're still alone

I'd like to come back home

I'd like to come back home

I'd like to come back home



I have been

Sleeping with the wolves

Velvet sheets, the fattest sheep,

And an everblowing cold breeze

It's like the planet's just for me

There's so much earth, so much ash,

So much sea
