Watching the Waves

I'm here watching the waves
 Just how long can it be
 Till that melody strays
 Through my mind and I'm cancelled
 Can't see no wood for the trees
 Can't tell no land for the sky
 When you're in up to your knees
 You soon find out who your friends are
 ♪
 Hmm
 Ah for the taste of it sweet
 One more time from the top
 Thoughts like crumbs in the sheets
 Words thrown as coins in a cup
 Just one more house in the rain
 Just one more spoonful of salt
 And now I'm at it again
 Banging on like it's my fault
 Everything you are
 Everything you are
 Everything you are i long to be
 Everything you are
 Everything you are
 Everything you are i long to be, hmm
 "Third verse":
 ♪
 I gave it all i could give
 I took that ghost for my bride
 Went day by day trying to live
 With my heart on the outside
 I watched the shape of it rise
 To dance like wind through the wheat
 And steal the light from your eyes
 In the space of a heartbeat
 ♪
 Everything fills with distance
 ♪
 Yeah everything
 ♪
 Everything you are
 Everything you are
 Everything you are, i long to be
 Everything you are
 Everything you are
 Everything you are, i long to be
 Everything you are
 Everything you are
 Everything you are, i long to be
 Everything you are
 Everything you are
 Everything you are, i long to be
 ♪
 Songs that push through the dirt
 Ploughing these roads into fields
 Sounding the notes of the words
 Till everything fills with distance
