Letra de 'No We're Not Actually' de Dads

Visits used to be on holidays and weekends
now you’re always a phone call away from wherever you’re needed
for emergency speakings

A body on a stretcher, eyes rolled back and barely sleeping
tears in your voice, I’m trying to keep you from weeping.

Because everything will be fine, as long as I say so.
And everything will go right, as long as I say so.

There’s the prettiest view of the city from his bedside window
if you ignore what they’re for, these machines make the most beautiful glow
turn the lights out and go

Pillows under his head, make sure there is a steady blood flow
hold his hand tight, whisper goodbye slow

Because everything will be fine, as long as we say so.
And everything will go right, as long as we say so.

So we’ll tell him to stay young
Don’t die on me yet

Because I can’t bear to see him like this again
I keep thinking back to all of us in that kitchen on those mornings

Steady nights of sleeping
Steady nights of sleeping
Steady nights of sleeping
Oh how I miss those

Oh how I miss you
