water's edge
I went to the water's edge Forgot I couldn't swim I went to the water's edge All ready to jump in I saw the water shimmer I heard the wind howl I saw my own reflection I just can't see it now You say it's the way of the world To somehow co-exists That eventually life unfurls A path to happiness So I whisper your little secret And repeat it under my breath I'll save it for you in my heart In case we both forget Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me I am gripped by a loneliness Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me I'd be released in your tenderness I'd be released in your tenderness I went to the water's edge And saw my life eclipse I went to the water's edge And then felt myself slip I dreamed that I was floating Just coast until I grew fins I want to catch this tide back home And feel you again Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me I am gripped by a loneliness Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me I'd be released in your tenderness Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me I am gripped by a loneliness Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me I'd be released in your tenderness I'd be released in your tenderness I'd be released in your tenderness.
