Well this is just
a simple song
to say
what you done
I told you about
all those fears
and away they did run
you sure must be strong
And you feel
like an ocean
being warmed
by the sun
When I was just
nine years old
I swear
that I dreamt
Your face
on a football field
and a kiss that I kept
under my vest
Apart from everything
but the heart
in my chest
I know that things
can really get rough
when you go it alone
Dont go thinking
you gotta be tough
to play like a stone
Could be theres
nothing else in our lives
so critical
As this little hole
my life in an
upturned boat
marooned on a cliff
You brought me
a great big flood
and you gave me a lift
to care, what a gift
You tell me
with your tongue
and your breath
is in my lungs
and you float
over the rift
I know that things
can really get rough
when you go it alone
Dont go thinking
you gotta be tough
to play like a stone
Could be theres
nothing else in our lives
so critical
As this little hole
Well this will be
a simple song
to say
what youve done
I told you about
all those years
and away they did run
you sure must be strong
And you feel
like an ocean
being warmed
by the sun
Remember walking
a mile to your house
a glow in the dark
I made a fumblin play
for your heart
and the extra
the spark
You wore a charm
on a chain
that I stole
special for you
Loves such
a delicate thing
that we do
with nothing to prove
Which I never knew
