Your mother’s voice was bleeding through the ceiling
As we rolled around along the kitchen floor
We could see your father in the backyard kneeling
Funny mother doesn’t kneel much anymore
But I pushed myself right through you for the first time
And I told you that I’d never untrue
oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooooh
And I held you like I never had before
Sister found the pills now for the first time
We all loved her more by her hospital bed
And father had a seat upon her right side
And mother loved her dearly from her left
Then her heart had burst into a sea of softness
And it swallowed up the whole world all at once
oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-ooooh
We were closer than we’d ever been before
We were younger than we’d ever been before
Somehow safer than we’d ever been before
