Boyish

Our stucco arms are forever tied loose Your velvet touch sends me back to the moon Daddy's coming home but mammas looking guilty Brothers in the basement 'til he's thirty Wolf child's heavy with the weight of the world Storing all his love in an adolescent girl There's sunlight dripping off the apricot tree Lost to the night tide growing in me Singing to the drunks like they're mom and dad All we ever knew is what we didn't have Never really knew if I did something wrong All I ever heard was "it wasn't my fault" But what good is truth if you don't understand Nothing but a pair of calloused hands? There's sunlight dripping off the apricot tree Lost to the night tide growing in me I've been saying to ya I've been saying to ya I've been saying to ya I've been saying to ya Singing to the drunks like our momma did All we ever knew is what we didn't have I've been saying to ya I've been saying to ya I've been saying to ya I've been saying to ya There's sunlight dripping off the apricot tree Lost to the night tide growing in me I've been saying to ya I've been saying to ya I've been saying to ya I've been saying to ya There's sunlight dripping off the apricot tree Lost to the night tide growing in me I've been saying to ya I've been saying to ya I've been saying to ya I've been saying to ya Singing to the drunks like our momma did All we ever knew is what we didn't have I've been saying to ya I've been saying to ya I've been saying to ya I've been saying to ya --- boyish - Hippo Campus
