Keep in touch with the dreamer, don't let her be a stranger
Though her brightest of days only seem to do you harm
Here in my back garden I ain't feeling any younger
But it's always the right time to tell your mother that you love her
No I wasn't hoping to spill the weight of the struggle
After all, I'm just an open book whose words tend to twist about
Yeah my dreamer's got that way of showing I ain't getting any younger
Look how I'm turning my thoughts into friends that grow apart from each other
'Cause I'm happily getting tired
Of wanting to be miles ahead
Can't expect much from a wave,
Having never learned to sail
'Cause I'm happily getting tired,
'Cause I'm happily getting tired, I'm..
Yeah I'm happily getting tired
Of wanting to be miles ahead
Can't expect much from a wave,
Having never learned to sail
Yeah I'm happily getting tired
From this wanting to be miles ahead
