Humming softly to yourself
You watch the words change for someone else
From an echo in a seashell
A drunken thought or a long farewell
Then tonight, I'll dive into your eyes
Will we feel like this for the rest of our lives?
Just stay put, tie it to a stone
Do I really want this stone to be thrown?
We've heard the sea, black and deep
Everything I give is everything that I keep
So shake the leaves, on this tree
And in the dark and blue light
I watched the bottle sail into the night
Carried you home, shaking like a leaf
You couldn't swim even though you live by the sea
A flock of owls know your name
Will you promise me to stay the same
I leaned my hands in your cold sand
I looked up and saw all the sunlight on the hand
Right after night, follow you home
Right after night, I saw your footsteps in the snow.
(We've heard the sea, black and deep)
(We've heard the sea, black and deep)
(We've heard the sea, black and deep)
(We've heard the sea, black and deep)
(We've heard the sea, black and deep)
(We've heard the sea, black and deep)
Everything I give is everything that I keep (x13)
