Sarah Mary Chadwick If I Squint
Twist it all
And grip it all
And I'd rather fall
Then see you fall
'Cause in a way I'm a mother for you
I'm a brother that suits no-one at all
And if I squint, I can see it
In a sign that reads 'No-one needs me'
And I wish I was out alright with no-one around
But I'll pay the pennants
And I'll write the letters
And keep track of members
And have fond remembrance
And I'll mediate it
And appreciate it
And if I squint
I can see it far away
The family that we like to say we are
I wrote a song for him
I wrote a song for her
I wrote a song for everyone, whose body's been burned
But who is writing songs for the way that I've been wrong
But hey, I'm forgetting it's you that's been had
So I'll pay the pennants
And I'll write the letters
And keep track of members
And have fond remembrance
And I'll mediate it
And appreciate it
And if I squint
I can see it far away
The family that we like to say we are
And hold me, dance me, 'round the room
Hold me, dance me, it's not too soon
Hold me, dance me, 'round the room
Hold me, dance me, it's not too soon
