Wish I could tell you how
Wish I could tell you about when I was a child
We'd go to the sledding hill
We'd cross the field and we'd take the trail
Due to the way my mind would wander
By the time we arrived I never knew how we got there
Like walking side by side, somehow on different ground
Wish I could walk there on the common ground
Wish I could talk when you are around
Well I went to your house and I sat at the table
And I smiled at the people
And I ate the meal
But I could not be fed
I put my hand to my mouth, but I could not taste the bread
The faces 'round me here
The faces 'round me
Talking animatedly
I close my eyes now I have to leave
I brought an animal, an animus
And now she's snarling and she's starving, I can't feed both us
It's like she's ate my tongue, and I can't make a sound
Wish I could stay, could talk could make a sound
Wish I could talk when you are around
Well I went to your house and I sat at the table
And I smiled at the people
And I ate the meal
But I could not be fed
I put my hand to my mouth, but I could not taste the bread
And I,
I brought my hand to my mouth, but I could not taste the bread.
