From the Edge of the Deep Green Sea

Lyrics

Every time we do this
 I fall for her
 Wave after wave after wave
 It's all for her
 I know this can't be wrong I say
 And I'll lie to keep her happy
 As long as I know that you know
 That today I belong
 Right here with you
 Right here with you
 ♪
 And so we watch the sun come up
 From the edge of the deep green sea
 And she listens like her head's on fire
 Like she wants to believe in me
 So I try
 Put your hands in the sky
 Surrender
 Remember
 We'll be here forever
 And we'll never say goodbye
 ♪
 I've never been so
 Colourfully-see-through-head before
 (I've never been)
 I've never been so
 Wonderfully-me-you-want-some-more
 And all I want is to keep it like this
 You and me alone
 A secret kiss
 Don't go home
 Don't go away
 Don't let this end
 Please stay
 ♪
 Not just for today
 ♪
 Never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never
 Let me go she says
 Hold me like this for a hundred thousand million days
 But suddenly she slows
 And looks down at my breaking face
 Why do you cry? what did I say?
 But it's just rain I smile
 Brushing my tears away
 I wish I could just stop
 I know another moment will break my heart
 Too many tears
 Too many times
 Too many years I've cried over you
 Over you
 Over you
 ♪
 How much more can we use it up?
 Drink it dry?
 Take this drug?
 Looking for something forever gone
 But something we will always want?
 ♪
 Why, why, why do you let me go?, she says
 I feel you pulling back I feel you changing shape
 And just as I'm breaking free
 She hangs herself in front of me
 Slips her dress like a flag to the floor
 And hands in the sky surrenders it all
 I wish I could just stop
 I know another moment will break my heart
 Too many tears
 Too many times
 Too many years I've cried for you
 It's always the same
 Wake up in the rain
 Head in pain
 Hung in shame
 A different name
 Same old game
 Love in vain
 And miles, and miles, and miles, and miles, and miles, and miles
 Away from home again
