Lyrics

Unborn

[Verse 1]

A candy coated dream

With parks and trees and figurines

And her arms wrap round my sleeve

With tiny steps and eyes of green

Toy guitar that's out of tune

Eyes fixed on morning time cartoons

And by the lantern of the moon

I will dream of a love like you

[Chorus]

And will you hang up high

A family portrait smile

Will you kiss my child

As she is dancing now?

This figure I will frame

A life without a name

But this thought I proclaim

I'm just romancing now

I'm only chancing now

[Verse 2]

A candy coated dream

With hearts and string and angel wings

And her life will fall between

The cracks that follow you and me

[Chorus]

Will you hang up high

A family portrait smile

Will you kiss my child

As she is dancing now?

This figure I will frame

A life without a name

But this thought I proclaim

I'm just romancing now

I'm only chancing now
