My best friend my lover

Sleeping on my chest

Dreaming of sunsets

Somewhere, that salty sea air

My east coast brother

He's shining in the sun

Studying the stars

With a big heart and kick drums

My Irish mother, she's beautiful and true

She said "son you can be anything you wanna be its up to you"

My east end father

Street wise and tough as nails

And they say in his day he stung like Sugar Ray

Stung like sugar ray stung like

And you were

Slap bang in the middle of a melt down

And the only way was up

And you were

Slap bang in the middle of a melt down

And the only way was up

My west coast summer, sinking in the sand

Watching the crows fly and watching the waves break land, over and over again

That slow walk home, her skin kissed by the sun

These days will come again, these days will come again these days will come again my Love

And you were

Slap bang in the middle of a melt down

And the only way was up

And you were

Slap bang in the middle of a melt down

And the only way was up

So keep my mother safe

My father strong

My brother brave

And my lover warm with me

And we'll ride out these waves

So keep my mother safe

My father strong

My brother brave

And my lover warm with me

And we'll ride out these waves

And you were

Slap bang in the middle of a melt down

And the only way was up

And you were

Slap bang in the middle of a melt down

And the only way was up

We couldn't see the mountains through the rain

Some said the sun might never come again

But we held on for hope

We held on for hope

We held on for hope

We couldn't see the mountains through the rain

Some said the sun might never come again

But we held on for hope

We held on for hope

We held on for hope
