You are having babies
I have gone away
Floating on an endless
Northern highway
I've come so far to find
That I still think like a child
I'd like to walk on water
But I'm waist deep all the while
All my troubles behind
Are they all behind me now?
I'll be good
While I'm gone
Young mother was a drinker
In the town where I come from
Gave away her young son
And so his life had begun
I saw his wedding and funeral
A beginning and the end
Two years of happiness
Father, lover and friend
All his troubles behind
Are they all behind him now?
I'll be good while he's gone
All our troubles behind
Are they all behind us now?
I'll be good while I'm gone
