lyrics

No rearing rules to read, recite,
your cocoon arms held us tight,
no need to forge expensive lies,
to prove that you are kind and wise,
you're like Coltrane as you improvise,
under the gaze of your loving eyes,
we came bursting out like butterflies,
bursting out like butterflies,

It's imperfect, it's innocent,
it's a burden you always accept,
it's fragile and it's delicate,
but not hard to say cause it's definite,
we love you,

When trumpets smile, you hear their sounds,
and flowers pop up from the ground,
but I feel mute I must confess,
at times I feel emotionless,
unable to show or express,
the beauty of your pure success,
in helping life and love to coalesce,
life and love they coalesce,

It's imperfect, it's innocent,
it's a burden you always accept,
it's fragile and it's delicate,
but not hard to say cause it's definite,
we love you,

So when the fog is feeling thick,
we're lonely, tired, and homesick,
I hope that we will all insist,
it's too hard fighting through the mist,
we can all move back and coexist,
I'll get all our stuff, I'll make a list,
we can share it all like communists,
share it all like communists,

It's imperfect, it's innocent,
it's a burden you always accept,
it's fragile and it's delicate,
but not hard to say cause it's definite,
we love you.
