Everyday since my boat flew away
I've locked my gaze ahead
There ain't a thing behind me these days worth a damn
Not since you came to my home, you stole my boat
You both flew away
Well I'm running out of jokes to tell my friends
I'm running out of words to make amends
I'm running out of places to turn, out of fires to burn
But I've never seen sunflowers bloom quite as bright
as they do in your eyes
And I'd sail my boat in a tsunami just to see you smile
I'd walk a thousand miles, but that ain't your style
I'd better brush up on my metaphor
in hopes of finding a cure
to this sickness of the sea
Cuz what goods a sailor if that sailor is me
I never set foot in the ocean blue
but I always dreamed of you.
But one day not so far away you'll see my new boat
You'll paddle by but I'll be much to high for you to see
With your eyes, they were the wings I used to fly
to such modest heights
And you'll know that you're just a ghost to me
Just a ghost
floating through the walls
floating through my skin into my bones
I am so alone
alone in my bones
