This is a song for a son
This is a song for a sailor
The best I ever had

This is a song for a kid
This is a song for a tailor
Who stitched up my old hearts

Who stitched up my old hearts

And I

I am one of many, many more to come
Many more to come
I am one of many, many more to come

Many more to come

This is a song for a dove

This is a song for a blown out bird
The kind that don't return to the nest
This is a song for a star

This is a song for a space invader
Who flew into the sun
Never to return

Never to return

I am one of many, many more to come

Many more to come
I am one of many more, many more to come
Many more to come


This is a song for a son
This is a song for a sailor

The son I never had
He sailed without a map
This is a song for that kid

This is a song for that tailor
Who stitched up my old hearts
Before I broke it all

All apart

I am one of many, many more to come

Many more to come
I am one of many more, many more to come
Many more to come


Ye daughters of the revolution
Carry back your sons

Carry them back home

Ye daughters of the revolution

Carry back your sons home

This is a song for a son

This is a song for a sailor
The best I ever had
He sailed without a map
