lyrics

from the beach we raise the sun
from the day we had some fun
'til the end pond scum

waves will remain grey
it is not just too late
'til the end my love

the letters that were sent
wait for sand in the end
my love 'til the end

bleach bones in this old skin
i wish I saw you again
but maybe you drift to be
pond scum all over me

in the eyes of the endless seas
alone beneath ancient trees
i'm caught up in this make believe
you know what you mean to me

what do you mean to me

empty bottles in my hand
isolated in a foreign land
memories are hard to feign
cold water coming from my veins

feeling loose under the breeze
tears drip into my drink
seeing double and losing grip
i'm holding out for your lips

just for your lips
