She was just five years old
A slightly moody day
She couldn't stay away, from that rivers edge and I
I turn my back to count
All the daffodil seas that surrounded
I close my eyes, and then heard the water wake up

And I, I can still hear that scream, It's still lingering, in the air, everywhere
"Mother, please save me, grab my hand" (I can't I can't)
I can still see that face, sink beneath the waves Baby please, breath for me, give me time I am here

Where did you go?
Where'd you go?
Where'd you go?
Hey, where'd you go?

Were the angels that lonely?
Couldn't they suffice for anybody else?
Can't everybody just lie to me
She's home, she's home Crying for me now
Every night on a Monday, I will visit the same spot that I hate
Yes the place that baby loved, and now she can taste it, oh it took her away

It's been five years since then
And when it hits September
I'll feel like I'm dying again
Ian still won't even talk to me, talk to me!
Isn't this pain, guilt enough?
I can't even look out the window, without seeing reflections distorted in the sun

(Repeat: And I can still hear that scream)

And the pain hits me like gunshot
And I'm heading on the way to the floor, I hear her name and it kills me
Oh, Bottles up, Bottles up, Bottles up

And I'm trying my best to hurt me
Ian says it's never enough
A razor to the wrist for each unshed tear, cough it up, drink it up, drink it up

So I had a coma, when I crashed my car in the lake
I saw your face down there I knew, it was not a mistake
So I went to the doctor I told him, oh my heart will break, If I couldn't see you He just, gave me more pills

But, I saw you up there
Still floating by the river
God, you always loved that river
I bet your heaven looks just like it

Then I'll like it too, even though it scares me now
But when I'm with you
I'll be just fine, I'll be just fine

We can sit, we can talk about, talk aboutButterflies Butterflies Butterflies
