Michael Jordan's Ball

There's a breeze off the river
Through the crack in the window pane
There's my boy on the pillow
And I feel like I'm lost again.

Everybody knows the secret
They all know what their life should be
And they move like a river
Everybody knows except for me.

And I never feel like somebody, somebody
Calls a father, I can't explain
But when I look at you kid, it's like a mirror
It spins my head, it wakes me.

Like the breeze off the river
Every time I see your face
And it's strange but familiar
Like a map of a better place.

And sometimes I feel like I live in a shadow
And shadow's all I see, then you jump straight up
And you grab the moon and you make it shine on me
Where do you get it from?

Everybody knows the secret
Well, I don't and I never did
I don't know any secret
All I know is I love you, kid
All I know is I love you, kid
All I know.
