Lyrics:

The penultimate song on Owen’s 2011 album, ‘Ghost Town.’
It describes the rewards and fears of parenthood faced by a new father.Me and you, kid
Home alone
Learning how to live
You
For the first time
And me
Well… it's been a long time coming
The hardest
Part
Is getting
Started
One
Foot falls in front
Of the other
One
Word spills out
After another
Now you try…
I'm long winter sick
Baby stir-crazy
And there are days
When doubts arise
They simmer and subside

For you, little Miss
Mother's Milk Breath
When the Sun gets tired
I'll hang the moon
And soon, little Miss
Limitless Interest
When the Moon catches fire
We'll start a new day of school
Do you know where your mouth is?
Or how to tell a lie?
Do you know what desire is?
You will in time…
Me and you, kid
Learning how to live
With these tired eyes
And thin skin
