(music: marillion lyrics: steve hogarth) There's a line on her jeans, that a ballpoint made From a careless mistake, that she can't wash away And there's a heart on her sleeve, from a spill of red wine There's a piece of green in the blue of her eyes She named it after me There's a stay dog she feeds, that she found in the street And he loves her to hold him, but he won't let her keep him And he claws at the door to be let out at night And she makes do without him, and she worries about him
She named him after me So if you ever decide, that you have to escape And travel the world, and you can't find a place Well, you could wind up believin' That paradise is nothin' more than a feelin' That goes on in your mind So if you ever find out what that is There's somethin' you could do 'cause if i ever hold that golden dream again I want to tell you i'm gonna name it after you
