Simon Raymonde - It's a Family Thing

Enjoy!

Lyric:

Simon Raymonde - It's a Family Thing

It's 4 o'clock in the morning
I've seen the man in the moon
I've seen things, I couldn't have dreamed of
I wished that you would come soon

And I know, when rainbow clouds open
I'll be the one on the moon
It's a kind of curious assumption
To think I understand you

Should I stand back and watch
As you continue to argue all night
Maybe this is my role in life
But don't you worry yourself cause it's alright

If I knew what to say
Just like today when we were discussing the weather
I would want to have more
More of those days when we could be laughing together

It's time for quiet contemplation
Just like those men on the moon
No sense in thinking it over
Cause one and one should make

It's a kind of curious assumption
To think I understand you
Should I stand back and watch
As you continue to argue all night
Maybe this is my role in life
But don't you worry yourself cause it's alright

If I knew what to say
Just like today when we were discussing the weather
I could want her amour
More of those days when we could be laughing together

If I kissed you like this
I know god exists
And what I was hoping to find here
Hold that thought in your head
If something I said
Could give you the wrong impression
All about me
All I want to be
How I suffer from a lack of direction
It's a family thing
and we're just unable to find where we're going.

hmm, those lyrics arent quite right.

the line you have written as ' I could want her amour ' is actually the less poetic "I would want to have more", and the last line isnt "when i'm just unable to find where we're going", it is " and we're just unable to find where we're going"

close but no cigar ; )
