lyrics

She wanted to go out
And travel the world by herself
She told me when I sat beside her
"Prepare for a fight!"
So I taught her to lie
I taught her to lie
I taught her to lie

When I travelled the world
I had learned there are little things worse
Than giving up on your wantings
So I taught her to rise
I taught her to rise

And stepping on stones
In the dust coloured roads
Was an act of joy to her
Then she broke a leg and fell on her knees
And I carried her to Saint West
And I taught her to dream
I taught her to dream
Taught her to dream

Then she fell asleep
Peacefully smiling in bliss
I held her in my arms
And when she woke up
She denied getting kissed
So I taught her to leave
I taught her to leave
Taught her to leave

I gave her the tools
For the road, for the sky
For the sea, for the hills and the nights
I taught her to dream and always be free
And flee from emptiness
I taught her to dream
