the quiet

Lyric:
got in your fast car with no brakes
just before the ocean you escaped
i once promised you that i’d wait
so now i call the water home

i find new ways to pass time
i listen to the songs we liked
watch the lantern fish swim by
caress our wedding bells that broke

late at night i wish for you
i sing to you
i cry your name

deep underwater
the siren i always was
you can be the sailor
my song can be your drug
and when the sun rises
as i’ve learned it always does
you can sail away
I’ll watch your waves crash above 

i keep memories that you dropped
a small stuffed fawn, a Guinness pint cup
two slow dancers slowing to a stop
the perfume i wore just for you

i’ve been learning how to be alone
learning to not resist the flow
so where the water goes i go
you’ll find me somewhere if you’re meant to

late at night i wish for you
i sing to you
i cry your name

deep underwater
the siren i always was
you can be the sailor
my song can be your drug
and when the sun rises
as i’ve learned it always does
you can sail away
I’ll watch your waves crash above

above me
below you
you're the sea
I’m the blue
i’m the sand
you’re the sky
you’re a wish
all mine all mine 

deep underwater
the siren i always was
you can be the sailor
my song can be your drug
and when the sun rises
as i’ve learned it always does
you can sail away
I’ll watch your waves crash above

Sarie
