Selkirk

Thank you, I think I'm doing just fine
Writing letters to let go of my pride
I'm a plane ride away but I'll stay behind
Selkirk called be back and I waved goodbye
Hold my hands I can't bare to look back to the land where his parents stood
Patiently waiting for a cleaner sign
It's only been 48 days, 3 weeks, 1 night

And who will be wrapped around your finger?
Who will remember the little man you are?
When you're waking up the light will glare in your eyes and I'll pretend your not mine

Yes, I know this feeling won't stay
But I'll pack my bags and keep running away
Quietly weary of each friend of mine, reminds me to get bolder and wiser in time

But who will be wrapped around your finger?
Who will remember the little man you are?
When you're waking up the sun will glare in your eyes and I'll pretend your not mine

Old wine reminds me of when I was young
The smell of cigarettes and coffee made me tough
Hanging lights remind me of painting suns
Take me back to when I was young
