The night that the power went out

Stumbling through drawers for a flashlight

White in the match for a second or two

Burning my finger with wax on my shoe

Flying around like bat in a zoo

It's a view that we won't ever see

And I was the sleeve of your coat

A maraca without any insides

A silent garden of carrots and peas

Listening into the sound of the breeze

Patiently waiting for someone to leave

With the sleeve on the coat rack downstairs

But I'm not there

I am right here

Sitting alone with the things that I fear

I've made mistakes

But I don't care

They're just an albatross hanging round

An albatross hanging round my neck

So stick out your tongue in the air

Cause you might not be able tomorrow

The change in the weather

The shape of the sun

A slight indication that winter is done

So catch all the snowflakes you can with your tongue

Cause you only can one day a year

Tomorrow the summer is here
