Sincerely
he said, go round the back way
he said, avoid the road more travelled
he said, hold tight onto your smile
when it's dark out & you, so fragile
you won't see the ground,
but it will rise beneath
you are steady on your feet
until it hits you in the teeth
you will know it when you've gone too far,
your sight grows in & narrow
you cannot see the stars above you
they love you in their far away way
they ask you sincerely to stay, hey, stay
she said, look up once in a while
she said, remember things there always remain
blossoms in the spring
birds remember to sing
& you will do the same
you will know it when you've gone too far,
your sight grows in & narrow
you cannot see the stars above you
they love you in their far away way
they ask you sincerely to stay, hey, stay
buildings hurdle by the train as you ride
you don't know where & you don't know why
all you can do is dry your eyes
cry like a little child
sometimes it takes a while
to be born
you will know it when you've gone too far,
your sight grows in & narrow
you cannot see the stars above you
they love you in their far away way
they ask you sincerely to stay, hey, stay
