They told me to keep swimming, but the sea is getting rough
I just don't think that this life will ever be enough
For a lonely misfit, a homesick wanderer
But there's no place for this lost ponderer
My arms are becoming tired, I'd like to just float
Let the smooth sand cover my body and my breathing will slow
Choking on salt water never tasted so sweet
Don't look down, the darkness swept away your feet
They told me not to give in
But my body feels so weak
The ocean floor is where you'll find me
Ninety feet deep.

I'm jealous of the sheets
Twisting through your limbs
Wrapping you close
To keep you safe and sound
They bring you warmth at night
And greet you each morning
Just how you're on my mind before I drift into a dream
And once I open my drowsy eyes
To the beaming morning light
Bursting through my curtains
You've returned to my thoughts again
But you never truly left.

I wish I could be the one
To rock you to sleep
To hold you in my pleading arms
To run my fingers through your shaggy hair
And listen to the groggy groans of your morning moans
My cool cheek against your chest
Kisses on your forehead
Rubs on your back
Our bodies mold to form
A timeless lullaby
