A forgotten whisper screams at me now   So that I don't forget how   to sit like a child on my mother's knee   How dare that child be me      And it's trot-trot to Boston   And trot-trot to Lynn   And trot all the way home again   But don't let me fall in      'Cause I'm slipping through your legs   I'm slipping through your legs   I'm slipping through your legs   I'm slipping through your legs (legs)      So race me up the loft   Up the ladder until I get lost   And let you be an arm's length away   So you can wake me and tell me of the day      'Causeit's trot-trot to Boston   And trot-trot to Lynn   And trot all the way home again   But don't let me fall in      'Cause I'm slipping through your legs   I'm slipping through your legs   I'm slipping through your legs   I'm slipping through your legs (legs)      So where are you going?   Did you follow me?   And how could you see so well? (so well)   You were helpless like a dove at bay   But what did you say when falling out?   Did you shout? Did you shout?   Did you oh oh oh....      'Cause I'm slipping through your legs   I'm slipping through your legs   I'm slipping through your legs   I'm slipping through your legs      So where are you going?   Did you follow me?   And how could you see so well? (so well)   You were helpless like a dove at bay   But what did you say when falling out?   Did you shout? Did you shout?   Did you oh oh....      And the way it goes   And I can't remember   And the way it goes   And I can't remember   And the way it goes   And I can't remember   And the way it goes   And I can't remember   And the way it goes   And I can't remember   And the way it goes   And I can't remember
