One Mouth Is Fed
Neil Finn
There must be a lot of pain
For the happiness I feel today
The balance can be cruel sometimes
Can turn you ’round the other way
I lifted up my head from sleep
Linger in the scent of a dream
Someone must be crying now
To make me laugh in sympathy
I could be wrong
You could be right
As one mouth is fed
Another is denied
Why all the tears
We’re crying with delight
As we lay in between the sheets
Ships are sinking in the bay
Find yourself a love to keep
Then someone else will have to pay
I lifted up my head from sleep
Linger in the scent of a dream
Someone must be crying now
To make me laugh in sympathy
I could be wrong
You could be right
As one mouth is fed
Another is denied
Why all the tears
We’re crying with delight
