about
From the album Fisher King, an alternative version of Can We Hear It? remixed by Mark Gardener of the band Ride.
lyrics
Can We Hear It?
I’ve fallen off the wagon
too many times
I was told it would not matter
as long as I enjoyed the ride
you pick me up, you pick me up
in your tiny arms
how’d you get to be so damn strong?
you pick me up, you pick me up
in your tiny arms
and you drop me where I belong
I was a boy, I was a boy
now I’m some kind of man
try to outrun what I can
I was a man, I was a man
now I’m some kind of boy
got the whole world in my hands
we might well make it
