If I Had A Heart




This will never end
'Cause I want more
More, give me more
Give me more






This will never end
'Cause I want more
More, give me more
Give me more







If I had a heart I could love you
If I had a voice I would sing
After the night when I wake up
I'll see what tomorrow brings






If I had a voice, I would sing






Dangling feet from window frame
Will I ever ever reach the floor?
More, give me more, give me more






Crushed and filled with all I found
Underneath and inside
Just to come around
More, give me more, give me more





If I had a voice, I would sing

When I Grow Up












When I grow up
I want to be a forester
Run through the moss on high heels
That's what I'll do
Throwing out boomerang
Waiting for it to come back to me









When I grow up
I want to live near the sea
Crab claws and bottles of rum
That's what I'll have
Staring at the seashell
Waiting for it to embrace me










I put my soul in what I do
Last night I drew a funny man
With dark eyes and a hanging tongue
It goes way bad
I never liked a sad look
From someone who wants to be loved by you










I'm very good with plants
When my friends are away
They let me keep the soil moist
On the seventh day I rest
For a minute or two
Then back on my feet and cry for you








You've got cucumbers on your eyes
Too much time spent on nothing
Waiting for a moment to arise
The face in the ceiling
And arms too long
I wait for him to catch me

Waiting for you to embrace me

Now's the Only Time I Know





dark brown hair
and eyelash
reappear
in a flash

now's the only
time i know









early morning's
greatest deed
what's forsaken
i do not need

there is water
there is snow

settling down
door and room
keep it tidy
keep it like home

now's the only
time i know








come here sparrow
watch my hand
black and blue seeds
that's what my hand can
now's the only
time i know

do my hair
and paint eyelash
reappear
in a flash
 there is more
i'd like to know

nine-fifteen
then i'm done
quiet front seat
and drive around

through the water
through the snow
