lyrics

You said you needed some time alone
A place to rest your eyes and rest your bones
Built a house on the water that you called home
Said you wanted a life you could call your own
But I saw you dead

You left your job and you left your friends
You didn't tell anyone about your plans
Your got into your boat and went for the sand
I promise not to tell anyone about where you've been
When I found you dead

Now the moon is high and the water is dark
And the light from your eyes shines in the stars
And the breath from your lungs is the breeze across my arms
And your voice in my head calls out to me

I will wait for you when your bones are dry and cold
I will wait for you when you're crying out your soul
I will wait for you after all the days have grown old
I will wait for you ’til the water takes me away
