Alfred's Lovesong

I'd rather drop this stone
that's on my chest back to the deep
it wouldn't be so scary now to try and go to sleep
you know
this is just the way we are
it's nothing really serious
you know
it's not really serious to die
or to live on
to breathe on
to get on
you know

wait until I fall asleep
and whisper in my ear
there's nothing to be frightened of
when you'll be staying near
you know
it's gonna make a change for me
it's gonna change the way to see
the world
the people
their lives
you know
it's gonna make a change for me
it's gonna change the way to see
the world
you know
you know
you know
