Dear Child (I’ve Been Dying To Reach You) [So Long Version]

[Verse 1]
Dear child, they're asking us to move
I watched her taking off her shoe
Let the shore tide take you in
Let the shore tide in
I'm weary, I'm not quite rested yet
This could be obvious to you
Let the shore tide take you in
Let the shore tide in

[Pre-Chorus]
In this short time
We've been treading air

[Chorus]
I've been dying to reach you
But your extension cord wouldn't reach that far
(Reach that far)
I've been patiently waiting
The indicator light is flashing on
(Flashing on)

[Verse 2]
Dear sleeper, you could've had a better bed
I loved to watch the way you grew
(We're out, we're out the door)
(We're out, we're out the door)

[Pre-Chorus]
In this short time
We've been treading air

[Chorus]
I've been dying to reach you
But your extension cord wouldn't reach that far
(Wouldn't reach that far, reach that far)
I've been patiently waiting
The indicator light is flashing on
(It's flashing on, flashing on)

[Bridge]
In this coma, sleepless dancing
We've been treading air

[Chorus]
I've been dying to reach you
But your extension cord wouldn't reach that far
(Wouldn't reach that far, reach that far)
I've been desperately waiting
The indicator light is flashing on
(It's flashing on, flashing on)

[Chorus]
I've been dying to reach you
But your extension cord wouldn't reach that far
(Wouldn't reach that far, reach that far)
I've been desperately waiting
The indicator light is flashing on
It's flashing on, flashing on
