When dad moved out to a frozen land The tv was jumping and it didn't quite feel right The cards they came with pictures of frozen lights And giant frozen sculptures So big right beside him Carved out of snow We traveled all night The clouds fooled us into seeing snow As far as we could see But it was summer and the sun came up And never went down for two whole weeks My mom she cried about money and time And how she felt older I didn't understand much She left and i stayed My dad played in the bar I wondered if i looked like him He was small evevn with boots on He looked like an eskimo And we were in alaska In the airport i had seen or imagined a mural of an arctic scene With seals and people that seemed nicer than me Where they smoked and talked about the dissapearing ground My dad was nice and seemed sorry for not being around SongtexteHe left work early and took me to a skating rink Where all of the kids in the world could have been I was scared and tall with skates on And my favorite jeans There was a boy who wanted to skate with me He held my hand And we went around More times i counted By a mural of an arctic scene I was looking at my feet because It was perfect and the air was clean My dad was there It was summer's last eve And that's how i choose to remember it Aus Songtexte Mania
