Our dream daughter
Candle on the altar
Blue eye on the left, your mother's brown on the right
You grew taller
Taller than I am
In white light from her breast, I touched your hand
Who are you?
Who would you have been?
Blue jay stuck in my kitchen
One wing open
I took off in slow motion
Cross-eyed, I did my best to climb
The clouds broke
Well, heaven took my throat
With two hands and a gentle eye, she let me die
Who are you?
Who would you have been?
Blue jay stuck in my kitchen
Just cold water
The shadow's getting longer
Though bright nights, hold my breath, silver on the right
I took all the blankets
And slept out in the yard
Moon fall, I swear I saw gold behind the stars
Who are you?
Who would you have been?
Blue jay stuck in my kitchen, fly away
