lyrics

The sun was out and I was flying,
I didn't know if this would last for long,
We have a love that's free and wild,
But I don't know if you and I belong,
You are here,
And then,
You're gone.

Everything that you want,
And everything that I need...
Where the water takes me,
Is where the river leads,
And if it falls apart,
It doesn't matter much to me,
'Cause I know I won't waste it,
'Cause I don't think it's free.

The sun was out and I was blinded,
Laying blissfully in a field of weed,
Let's cut the cord and sink the island,
Underwater we will learn to breathe,
Like eels,
Beneath,
The sea.

Everything that you want,
And everything that I need...
Where the water takes me,
Is where the river leads,
And if it falls apart,
It doesn't matter much to me,
'Cause I know I won't waste it,
'Cause I don't think it's free.

Everything that you want,
And everything that I need...
Where the water takes me,
Is where the river leads,
And if it falls apart,
It doesn't matter much to me,
'Cause I know I won't waste it,
'Cause I don't think it's free.
