For Coit and Kille
Ted Leo
Up before the sun
A greeting for everyone
And then you say goodbye, but the light in your eye tells me
Our day has only begun
Don’t know what we’ll find
Don’t know what goes on in your mind
I know you need to hurry, and some folks will worry
But I’m only one step behind
Ooh, I’m in a lonely place
Not having you down by my side
And you’d think that my sleep would be happy and deep
Ah, but I only dream of the times that I know you’ve cried
Might know where you hide
We might’ve been made for the outside
And if things that I do could bring back your sky, blue, well then
Baby you know I’d’ve tried
I’ll still try
