1
A cannon was fired by the light of the moon
2
I'm waiting, the boat should be here very soon
3
And I mind less and less all the silly pictures that hang round my room, for now
4
I write you a letter
5
I hope you feel better
6
I hope you forgive the transgretions
7
I've given you love
8
And I've given you anger as well
9
And I meant them both
10
I always knew it was coming this way
11
Was coming this way
12
I always knew a big boat would come and take me away
13
Take me away
14
I stood on my bed
15
Then I slipped in my dress
16
Then I ran through the halls
17
Like a ghost
18
And in case someone heard me
19
I grabbed the big dagger that I'd never use
20
Unless
21
Barefeet on the cobblestones street
22
Then a peach
23
Then a splash
24
Then my ankles
25
My knees
26
Then my thighs
27
And my eyes open-wide
28
I threw myself right into the sea
29
And I could see it was coming my way
30
Was coming my way
31
I always knew a big boat would come and take me away
32
Take me away
33
Take me away
34
I've woken up once
35
And I've twice
36
And I've woken up millions and millions of times
37
Somebody's got to tell all the people to be like the water
38
Somebody's got to tell all the people to be like the water
39
I would if I could
40
But I can't so I don't
41
My heart breaks too easy
42
My words get all jumbled
43
And when I wear lipstick
44
Then no-one understands me at all
45
They think I'm saying hello and goodbye
46
Hello and goodbye
47
What I'm really saying is
48
(whispering)
49
They think I'm saying hello and goodbye
50
Hello and goodbye and hello
51
What I'm really saying is
52
(whispering)
53
I've woken up once
54
And I've woken twice
55
And I've woken up millions and millions of times
