my mother says people who die in the desert
don't go to heaven, but go to the sea
my mother says that people who die in the desert
don't go to heaven, but go to the sea
and i am sick of writing about waiting
i'm really sick of writing about waiting
you need to write more love letters
you haven't been trying very hard
and this is my mother's pen
and she's twenty again
kissing boys on the porch
and this is my mother's pen
and she's twenty again
kissing boys in the backyard
i hope you're happy about the way things are
i hope you're happy about the way you think things are
when we make love to all our friends
we kiss them hard on the mouth
