The water is cold and storm is approaching Not much of a metaphor this is Is this the firm ground that I begged for Seems to be another reef Then the wave comes and I know I'll never go back Can you tie me to the mast so I don't fall from the deck If I do, could you
Swim with me Swim with me I'll never forget I'll never forget again
My clothes are wet I see things clearer So much clearer than I did When we were walking hand in hand in the harbour Watching ships come and go Then the wave comes and I know I'll never go back Can you tie me to the mast so I don't fall from the deck If i do, could you
The distorted surface you see is the mirror of my soul And this gale is our fear that the fate will take control But our vessel's way too sound for this storm to swallow I know someday we'll stand on the ground Feet in the water so shallow Feet in the water so shallow Feet in the water so shallow
