lyrics

Here with you, love is like the sea
and the ebbing of the tide will sweep you far from me
Where your arms stop holding me
and the turning of your heart makes clear what you mean

Well you say, 'I got better things to do than wait for you to find your way'
As you lay, on the bed where we were lovers once, and future kings and queens all that we surveyed
Your head hanging down as you lie back and sigh, saying, 'I could try...
but in the time that it would take me to explain, you're gone again.'

The walls that stand around me, love
are nothing but a space in which I held you up
Where you stayed with me for a time
and whispered all the broken parts that made you mine

Where I said, 'From the kitchen to the bed might be the only place I ever need to go'
And the corners of your mouth, turned to north from south, and I counted it a win, though I guess I had to know
You were counting down the days, you were adding up the ways, and marking time,
so you could make an honest claim that you had tried, before it died

So you say, 'I got better things to do than wait for you to find your way'
As you lay, on the bed where we were lovers once, and future kings and queens of all that we surveyed
Your head hanging down as you lie back and sigh, saying, 'I could try...
but in the time that it would take me to explain, you're gone again.'

I know you, you are like the sea
and the ebbing of the tide will sweep you far from me
