I'll dry my heart I'll wash my bones
A great goodbye to a paper sea I know
Where the sun's afloat a diamond flood
Just cause it makes you sing doesn't mean it's love
And I still think it's wonderful
But wonder keeps and I grow old
It rains all day but I'm not sad
Look what I am because of what I had
Oh it was cold, but I didn't freeze
And I cried you a tear, now I'm out of the sea
It was strong, it was sweet, it took me, I was weak
You're still in my chest, I just don't feel you beat
Who are you now? I knew you well.
If you're listening, I could never tell.
When you let go of my words, they fell and
Someday you'll be the sea for someone else
It was nice to be caught up in you
You know I stayed until my hands turned blue
When your name is lost and my voice is new
I'll still know your face when I sing your tune
