Pull down the blinds
And stare at my blank screen
Some voice is asking
How my weekend's been!
Planes go across the sky of Petersham
One day I will see all
The hope that's stored in them

The pale underside catches the light

Like a see-saw
I just need more weight to carry me up
Maybe one day she will just say
That she's happy enough, happy enough

Leaves haven't fallen yet
But winter's been too long
Grief hits me like a succession of time bombs

I've run out of reasons to explain it away

Like a see-saw
I just need more weight to carry me up
Maybe one day
She will just say "I'm happy enough"

If I was older then I would hold her
Tight and say: "don't you ever leave me"
And then maybe one day she will just say
That she's happy enough, happy enough

If I was older then I would hold her
Tight and say: "don't you ever leave me"
And then maybe one day she will just say
That she's happy enough, happy enough
