Intro

Verse

 My someday coming child,

 I name and I re-name you.

 I make up memories for you

of melodies and friends from books I wanted to give you

 And horse and buggy sounds outside.

Chorus

But of the someday coming world,

 I don't know, I don't know.

 There is so much I would keep you from

If I, if I could.

Verse

 The heroes, selfish fools -

 They only want their freedom.

 The hero-maker's greed prevails.

And we are all shock numb

 And watch the shock increasing.

 And shame is something old, outgrown.

Chorus

4X

Verse

 Oh, maybe you won't see

 My too self-conscious stumblings,

 My running from the phone,

 My fears

Chorus

ish

Because I can be very strong.

 Say I can, say I can.

 There is so much to believe in.

 There are angel words to teach you.

 There is hope, my daydream child.
