1979

You would make your living
On the stilts of yellow pine
In the daylight drinking
Summer, 1979
Was it summer loving?
Two kids with twinkles in their eyes
Did you believe in magic?
Soon, you’d hear your babies cry (cry)
You told us of a light in your room
Could you feel us breathing inside you?
'cause we were breathing inside you
The 80's rushed you forward
With kids to occupy your time
On Yates avenue
Dust and dirt, whiskey and wine (wine)
You told us of a light in your room
Could you feel us breathing inside you?
'cause we were breathing inside you
Mother had a dream and
It changed the course our life would take
She was bussing tables
Counting change that she would make
You told us of a light in your room
Could you feel us breathing inside you?
'cause we were breathing inside you
Hold on to those photographs
You and your sister laugh
Smile as you’re looking back
Pink Floyd and Paul McCartney
Billy Joel and Queen
They mix with the memories
You told us of a light in your room
Could you feel us breathing inside you?
'cause we were breathing inside you
Hold on to those photographs
You and your sister laugh
Smile as you’re looking back, yeah
Pink Floyd and Paul McCartney
Billy Joel and Queen
They mix with the memories
You told us of a light in your room
Could you feel us breathing inside you?
'cause we were breathing inside you
