Strange coincidences come back into your days
You, child and woman, wrestling with your regrets
I want you convinced so you can face fate
This life eats you if you feed it with maybes
So many answers you seek, but deep down you know it's best for you
To make planet Earth a place that doesn't belong to you
Like roses in November, find strength inside
And there you'll find the strength to teach a master
To paint together with you
If there's no life in you, though
But, see, you don't get that outside there's a war
Don't fear, Greta, I know you feel lost
I know you feel cold, even with your blanket
Clouds come down and slip in through the window
Greta, learn to love a dream, keep it for yourself
With silence, sweat out a life better than this
Then trust nobody, I'm speaking from experience
Greta, take a leap and we'll fly out the window
So fly with me
Get over the fence then write what you feel
Separate what you love from what's just pretty
Courage, Greta, dream, walk down your own road
Hug tight the life that was waiting for you
She'd walk you down to school
Courage, Greta, win, then dedicate the victory to her
Do it for her, for those empty days
For when she held you tight and nobody else was around
To paint together with you
If there's no life in you, though
But, see, you don't get that outside there's a war
Don't fear, Greta, I know you feel lost
I know you feel cold, even with your blanket
Clouds come down and slip in through the window
Greta, learn to love a dream, keep it for yourself
With silence, sweat out a life better than this
Then trust nobody, I'm speaking from experience
Greta, take a leap and we'll fly out the window
So fly with me
