If I Ever Was A Child

WILCO · Schmilco 2016 · Track 02 of 12

Written by Jeff Tweedy

I've never been alone Long enough to know If I ever was a child

I was tied up like a boat Unbuttoned button like a coat Set free for a while Well I jumped to jolt my clumsy blood While my white, green eyes Cry like a window pane Can my cold heart change Even out of spite?

I slump behind my brain A haunted stain never fades I hunt for the kind of pain I can take

And I cry like a window pane Can my cold heart change Over night? So I won't ever want to touch Your heart too much Or hold you too tight

I slump behind my brain A haunted stain will never fade I hunt for the kind of pain I can take

I never was alone Long enough to know If I ever was a child
