The narrator replied that he wants them, so that he can become a kind person and understand what is important to him.

He asked for just a single mouth, so that he couldn't argue with himself and could kiss only one person. The person then asked him about his body, and planned to give him two arms, legs, mouths, ears, eyes, hearts, breasts and nostrils. Someone asked them if they would like to see the future or past, and he figures he picked the past, so that he could be a kind person, rather than a strong person, and to understand what memories truly mean. The lyrics detail someone musing over the idea that before they were born, they were given specific choices.
