Inside my heart resides a man
Who tries his best to understand
The motives of a little boy
Who plays with bugs and is filled with joy
Who needs supervision in the tub
And has a capacity to love
Inside my heart resides a boy
Who can't quite reach the water fountain
I fear, but then I do have faith
It's written on my child's face
I love so much about this earth
This planet of my family's birth
Midnight finds the boy in me
Half off the bed, but still asleep
I watch him from the chair in which I sit
Proudly scared getting through it
I don't succumb to the faint idea
Of changing his position, (it's warm in here)
As the night falls from the weary day
It's your song I'm supposed to play
The rain continues, the ladder rain
We're supposed to climb away again
Maybe it's you I'm supposed to catch
Acting like I don't have a past
Inside my heart resides a boy
Who can't quite reach the water fountain
I fear, but then I do have faith
It's written on my child's face
I love so much about this earth
This planet of my family's birth
Midnight finds the boy in me
Half off the bed, but still asleep
I watch him from the chair in which I sit
Proudly scared getting through it
