Cartwheels

Oh Mama

We'd sail away

Doing cartwheels on the front lawn

Everyday

You'd sing "Here Comes The Sun"

Then we'd dance together

Thought it would last forever

I see my life fly on by

A soldier in the rain

A shining road ahead of me

Oh Mama

I wanna be happy

Stop running from my memories

Being on the road sets me free

But sometimes

I want to come back home

I want to hear your voice say to me

Be yourself

Cause that's all that matters baby

Oh Mama

Carry me away

On the rooftops

And in the high trees

That was where I used to dream

I'd close my eyes

Then I'd hear you singing

Blackbird in the dead of night

I see your life fly on by

Mama don't you be afraid

Look at all the love that you have made

Oh Mama

You want us to forgive you

You did nothing wrong

Followed your road for so long

But sometimes

You want to come back home

You want it all to be the way it was

With your Shana made of leather

Doing cartwheels on the lawn

All the planes are out tonight

I see them flying

Lighting up the sky

Can you see them flying

Lighting up the sky
