You say you're not mine
What are we then?
Somewhere down the line I lost a friend
And I know it's hard to know just what you need
And what you want
But everyday I try to win your heart
I hope that's enough
Your arms are an ocean
Your soul and your eyes are crashing wild and worn and blue
Though I've been working to weather the waters
I'll never reach the rocks and get to your hands, and heart, and works of art
That break apart the smarter thoughts in me
But how does a sailor fight the ways that a siren sparkles in the light?
Where'd we hide in the shallow tide
When the ships were pulled away?
Power lines and ancient pines,
I can't keep you in my bay
And I know it's hard to clear your heart of this
And move along
But maybe by your side is not the place where I belong.
You say you're not mine
What are we then?
Somewhere down the line I lost a friend
And I know it's hard to know just what you need
And what you want
But everyday I try to win your heart
I hope that's enough
