lyrics

Down by the blackberries, the duck pond, and the shading pines.
Laughing loudly, hearts merry, wishing that the sun wouldn’t hide.
Playing ball and hide and go seek, seeking for our purpose in life.
Dirty fingernails, faces, and feet. Scraping knees, unashamed to cry.

And I sing, and I talk, and I run, and I fall down.
And I sing, and I talk, and I run, and I fall down.

Lying under cold bed sheets, praying that the sun would rise.
I really need my mom and dad, please! Let me know that it will all be fine.
The sudden light from the night lamp soothes, my memories are slowly impaired.
The man was in a bright red suit, I was running up the basement stairs.

And I sing, and I talk, and I run, and I fall down.
And I sing, and I talk, and I run, and I fall down.

Oh my God,
I sin, and I fall, and I run right back to you now!
Oh my God,
I sin, and I fall, and I turn right back to you now!
Oh my God,
I sin, and I fall, and I run right back to you now!
