My Familiar

My familiar, glad to see you
Shiny new umbrella in the rain my sun
If I could lay this hammer down
Say goodbye and let that big jet airplane carry me home
Let that big jet airplane carry me
My familiar comes
Chasing shadows in the morning light
And I would stay inside with you forever
If I could
My familiar, recognition
Is the sweetest consolation in the world I know
If I could lay this hammer down
Say goodbye and let that cold black water carry me home
Let that cold black water carry me
If I could lay this hammer down
If I could lay this hammer down
If I could lay this hammer down
I'd carry me away
My familiar comes
Passing glances in the windows on the highway
My familiar, my son
Shine a light and raise your arms
'Cause daddy's coming home
My familiar comes and goes
