The Beach Song

Picture me in an empty room
piano plays 'cause I only sing the blues
when she's over, now she's over
Picture me when I've got something to say
she says that I'll always be that way
when I'm older, now she's older
well she promised me
she'd build a boat for the sea
well here I am
I'm standing alone

I'm in love with you she said
so I'm building a boat for the ocean
with floors of blue and walls of red
it can take us through
if we want it to
so we'll sail the sea like she promised me

Another day in another life
the sun and moon come out
just to fight the sky
for a love song meant for everyone
Another day and I've got nothing to show
so I'll sing the songs
that I've sung before
such a bold tune for a cold moon
well I promised you
I'd write a song for your blues
well here I am
I'm singing alone

chorus

Build up these walls around us
like an ark our fears will save us
they'll save usx2

chorusx2

I'm in love
pray our fears might save us now
we'll never make it home
