Baby Dream Lyrics

Had a dream about the girl I'd have
Raising her by the sea in damp sand
Pressing dots on her skin, she's safe with me
Bathing suits, curly hair, baby

Baby

She grows old, grow apart
Learn to walk, then to run
To the sky, then the sun
New-found freedom in being alone
So long, farewell, baby

Baby

The years go by, up, and around
I'd miss her footsteps in my house

She never calls, I go to the shore
All I am is a ghost of a daughter before
All my life is just birds viewed from the back
They fly far away from my lonely nest

A weight so familiar returns to my home
That left me the day my daughter was born
I'm nothing more than a mother of one
She ripped out my heart, took off at a run

What do I be without her around?
What noise do I make if there's no one to hear the sound?

Baby
