I found the bank had been left full
our memories afloat the waters edge,
steeping in the summer's sun
all together to keep them warm
Stitches in our arms and legs
they're too tight to pull apart
and even though we're still together
I feel so very, very far
wrapped around me
you never found me
all the years you searched and scrounged
never saw me never called me
never ever left your ground
I found the boat we thought was empty
just like our twisted solid bones
our happiness was still inside it
it was too heavy to take it home
wrapped around me
you never found me
all the years you searched and scrounged
never saw me never called me
never ever left your ground
I was right beside you
held on tight to
everything we wished to be
and now you're home and all alone
a little river turning to the sea.
