1
Father hit his head on the kitchen door
2
Mother broke her ankle on the theatre floor
3
While I was waiting patiently in a warm, dark safe
4
With a smile on
5
Father waited nervously by the hospital door
6
Mother placed the table with her apron on and her hair tied up
7
Father packed a suitcase with his clothes tucked in it and a face of disgust
8
While I remember vaguely
9
In their bedroom with the closet too small
10
I remember yelling from the hall
11
Mmm surprise I'm the apple of your eye
12
Ohh it is true this piece I wrote for you
13
I remember vividly on my fathers shoulders I felt so tall
14
Taught me how to tie my shoes on the staircase at the end of the hall
15
Well I was screaming manically at the bathroom ceiling with the water on
16
I remember sleeping with the light on
17
Now it's clear that I am no use right here
18
Take it slow we've got a long long way to go
19
Father held my homework up with a grimace and a hole punched in it
20
Father stood there softly with a big warm grin and his baseball tickets
21
I put my breath in a suitcase
22
For the politicians of that place and time
23
Mother broke her ankle in 1989
24
At the top of the town where you can be looking down
25
With the space and the air no one can find you there
26
Just the plants and sky, oh I almost went awry
27
With the sights and the sounds, you can sleep without a sound
