Lyrics
I’m mourning the loss of a friend
Ships already sailed it's on the horizon
Already knew it would end
I just didn't think it would be so permanent
I'll be waiting at the shore
If you're ready to come back home
If your vessel is tired and worn
And you can't take anymore
I'll be waiting at the shore
On this island I'm starving
Didn't think to know how I was feeling
There's a boat that I'm carving
Oh, don't be mistaken it's not saving you
It's saving me
I can't save you if you're overboard
But you can always swim down to the coast
But don't expect me to row to you, no
Even when you need me most
Oh, I promise I won't tell you I told you so
When I was drowning, you cut the line
anticipating the rising tide
Don't you hate the feeling, you've been left behind.
Oh I can't save you if you’re overboard but I'll be waiting at the shore
I can't save you if you're overboard
But you can always swim down to the coast
But don't expect me to row to you, no
Even when you need me most
Oh, I promise I won't tell you I told you so
I’m mourning the loss of a friend
Ships already sailed it's on the horizon
Already knew it would end
I just didn't think it would be so permanent
