Aaron

Your mother wanted to name you Aaron
But her body built you as a different man
And, my friend, if you want me to I'll call you Aaron
I can

You sing your song with your back turned to me
Your body shaking, voice sturdy and still
If closing my eyes will help you turn around Aaron
I will

The water's warm but it still stings your shins
When you are wading in
It's worth the swim
I feel so weightless
Rid of our bodies
Come and float with me Aaron

Your father wanted to take you shopping
For something to wear on his wedding day
When I saw you standing there with your shirt tucked in, well
I caved

The water's warm but it still stings your shins
When you are wading in
It's worth the swim
I feel so weightless
Rid of our bodies
Come and float with me Aaron

You live your life with your back turned to me
Your body swaying voice steady in stance
If shutting my mouth will help you
Turn around Aaron
I can
I can, Aaron I can
