Lyrics
she goes to sleep sixteen
she'll wake up twentynine
and in her moments of silence
start humming a long lost line
yes, i remember that one
i'll go to work today
while it's the last thing on my mind
i keep dreaming
that the kid inside stayed behind
help me remember
how it feels to be a kid
in the institution of an american home
stay close by
always wipe your feet
be sure to look both ways before you cross the street
well i've crossed that street now so many times
don't know where i'm at
don't know where i'm at
honey it's eight
have you seen my keys
are you wearing that?
be sure to lock the door
and don't let out the cat
these are the days
along our avenue
these are the days
i spend with you
she'll go to sleep sixteen
wake up tomorrow twentynine
and in her moments of silence
start humming a long lost line
i'll go to work today
while it's the last thing on my mind
i keep dreaming
about the kid inside
help me remember
how it feels to be a kid
in the institution of an american home
stay close by
always wipe your feet
be sure to look both ways before you cross the street
well i've crossed that street now so many times
help me remember
how it feels to be a kid
t6-in the institution of an american home
she'll go to sleep sixteen
wake up tomorrow twentynine
and in her moments of silence
start humming a long lost line
