about

An old fashioned ballad in 12/8

lyrics

I’ve played this scene out in my head before
But you didn’t leave there wasn’t even a door
Somewhere there is an ocean without a shore
If your heart is full could you keep me in mind
If your bed is made I can just sleep outside
If this ship has sailed I’ll just wait for the next tide

How can an anthem turn into a hymn
Can a singalong be the loneliest sound in the world

I held you close but I held you too tight
The end is near but it’s not quite in sight
This is just the first chance for a last goodbye
If your heart is full could you keep me in mind
If your bed is made I can just sleep outside
If this ship has sailed I’ll just wait for the next tide

And now always is just a dirty word
And forever just sounds like a curse
