lyrics

When you sail your paper boat
Down every silver stream.
I can't be your guiding light
But I know where you'll be.
I know that you'll navigate
Those stone and scissor trees.
But the boys can't hear the sound,
Stony eyes stare at the ground
In the concrete bunker that they've found,
You dance around and steal away
And sail on down the stream,
Float through every dream,
Because things are what they seem
My rose

Rose you sail on down the stream
Never need a home.
On the street, the boys, their dreams
Are framed in monochrome.
In public bars they drink and feed
Cheap dope and cheaper porn.
But you look up and hear the sound,
churches, statues tumbling down
And in the debris all around
You dance around and you steal away
And sail to far off lands
Tear up all their plans
Hold your brother's hand
My Rose
