I wish I could get through to you,
Seems like you don't want me to.
But still I try.
I know when you're not feelin' strong,
When things for you are goin' wrong.
But still I try.
I remember the first time
That I looked into your eyes.
I remember the first day
Of your life.
You're my flesh and blood.
I knew it from the very first moment.
You're my flesh and blood.
I knew it from the very first moment.
I see the sadness in your eyes.
I wish that I could paint your skies
A brighter blue.
You build these walls around yourself,
Protecting you so no one else
Can get to you.
You're my flesh and blood.
I knew it from the very first moment.
You're my flesh and blood.
I knew it from the very first moment…
My flesh and blood.
My flesh and blood.
