Every night will you try to be on my side If we're not if we fight will you run and hide So speaks her gaze He knows it too well She's got something to say And it's tearing her up but the kid's in the way Every night will you try to be on my side If we're not if we fight will you run and hide So speaks her gaze I know it too well She's got something to say This time she says it outloud I think I don't mean to do what I do That can't be me As told by you Maybe sometime I'll speak my mind And sing it straight my love And be on your side If we're not if we fight will I run and hide So speaks my gaze You know it too well I've got something to say And it's tearing me up but the kid's in the way Every night will you try We will fight We will cry Save for the light on the front porch at night There is nothing that shines No one gets out alive It comes as surprise Worse than I feared How can you leave Babies and years And though I try to speak my mind I can't sing it straight my love Or be on your side
