lyrics

Together, we’ve come so far together.
You built a shelter, far stronger than the weather
*
We watched the sun fading out but the heats still around,
It feels like gravity’s weak and our lives could change.
We’re talking through our dreams, lost in lucidity,
Just as I’m falling asleep, you took a breath to say.

Hold me close,
We never have to be here again.
Show me home
And I love you; know I love you.

And I can see it,
Still, harder to believe it’s true.
*
Hold me under the water
(It’s easier to breathe down here)
Conceal me until I feel better,
But, if it’s too much, then will you just

Hold me close,
We never have to be here again.
Show me home
And I love you; know I love (you)

You took a moment to leave and you know that I can’t.
Take a second to believe in me, know that I can’t.
Just a moment to leave and you know that I can’t
And in the moment you leave yeah you know that I am
You took a moment to leave and you know that I can’t.
Take a second to believe in me, know that I can’t.
*
Hold me under the water
(It’s easier to breathe down here)
Conceal me until I feel better,
I’d rather talk through the night, than fall asleep.
