Lyrics Now You Know - Anaïs Mitchell

When I think about dying
I think about children
And when I think about children
I think about you

And when I think about you
I feel like crying
Crying for my youth

And when I think of my youth
I think of my freedom
And when I think of my freedom
I feel so alone

And when I feel lonely
I want you to hold me
Hold me in your arms

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

And when I think of your arms
I think about sleeping
Sleeping like a baby
All through the night

And when I think of the night
I feel like wheeping
Wheeping for my life

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

And when I think of my life
I want to be with you
Shoulder to shoulder
When we're waking up

And we're waking up
And we're one day older
And we're making love

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

And when we make love
I think about children
And then I think about dying
Lying in your arms

You want to know why I'm crying?
Now you know

Ooh ooh ooh ooh
