about

A love song I wrote for a girl I knew some time ago. We were only together a couple months and didn't see each other much, but when we did, it made the time apart worth it.

lyrics

Come
Come into the water
You know I am no swimmer
But won't you swim with me

So cold
When it gets to the nighttime
There's beasts in the tree line
Come make a fire with me

And oooohhhhhh
Can I wake up
With you-ohhhhhhh
Can I wake up

Five dogs
Stand in the clearing
They won't stop their barking
I think they're calling for me

Just rest
We'll be there by sun down
And when the moon comes round
You'll be walking with me

And ooohhhh
Can I wake up
With you-ooohhhh
Can I wake up?

There's a man..in my thoughts
His face is blurred but his suit is sharp
And in his hands is what I thought was lost
A fragment of our broken jaw
A key to a boat in a port in a city
And a hastily scribbled map to the
Island we sailed from

Now here's my boat..here's the sea
And the number of waves between you and me
Getting fewer and fewer, race through the surf
Pieces of puzzles from what we thought was worthless
Now the sun is setting through the sails, I can sleep
And hold together the ashes of the dreams we keep
Holding onto

And ooohhhh
Can I wake up
With you-ooohhhh
Can I wake up?
And ooohhhh
Can I wake up
With you
