I'm alone, alone, alone
with a big watermelon
dreaming of fig peel under my nail
I smoked my rules, you smoked your sway
the best man is gone, gone, gone
liberation won
now that I'm let go, where will I bend
with all the keys you locked back in my hand
I don't want to take off your sweater
I can't sleep anyway because of the weather
I feel closer to the other side
you're a teacher, a coach, a friend, a father
why did I mistake you for a lover
you're far beyond, you shine a light
you're way beyond, you shine a light
thanks to you I'm closer to the other side
