about

Though released today, this track was written in 1999, several weeks after my divorce from my second wife became final.

lyrics

Ah.
I see my children living
Two to a broken home.
Ah.
Existing somewhere else,
With someone else and
Not here by my side.

Nights,
Days and nights,
Nights and days
Without them.

And I'm so selfish that,
I try to fill in the space.

Nights,
Days and nights
Filled with love,
With love.

Ah.
I see the three of us,
Living life content.
Ev’ry day is our day to
Laugh and play
And in my eyes,
I have to say
That I want it all,
All the love.
I want it all,
All the joy.
It’s mine, all mine.

Our time together
Is the time that I feel
Alive.

Dut, dut, dut dut, dut, dut, dut dut.

Smile,
Play and smile,
Laugh and shout,
And shout.

Broken home,
Broken home,
Broken home.
Mmm.

I see the three of us,
Living life with ease.
Ev’ry day we take time to
Laugh and play
And in my eyes
I have to say,
That I want it all,
All the love.
I want it all,
All the time,
To be mine.
Always to be mine.
