Love, lay me down slay me with whispers
|
Reassure me that it's alright
|
I, I hit the deck,
|
I hit rock bottom
|
But you saw me, then you caught me
|
Shining like a ray of hope swift like a turning sea
|
Angel to comfort me
|
Cradling my head in your hands
|
I looked up at the sunand the fog cleared,
|
I saw you
|
|
And I want you and that's so terrifying
|
And I want you to help put out the fire
|
Cause I am an island, you are the ocean
|
And all of my sadness taken by the sea
|
Fall, I took a fall
|
I took it easy
|
On the surface
|
I was perfect
|
But down, way down below
|
I started believing
|
I deserved it was I worthless
|
Sinking like a rescue boat
|
Washing right over me
|
Vessel is struggling
|
Waving both my hands in the air
|
Then the blindness of love
|
Then your arms all around me
|
|
And I want you and that's so terrifying
|
And I want you to help put out the fire
|
Cause I am an island, you are the ocean
|
And all of my sadness taken by the sea
|
|
And I want so much to believe
|
That I won't disappear in the water
|
That I won't always be swimming against the tide
|
|
And I want you and that's so terrifying
|
And I want you to help put out the fire
|
Cause I am an island and you are the ocean
|
And all of my sadness taken by the sea, the sea
|
I am an island,
|
You are the ocean
|
All of my sadness taken by the sea
|
