The ocean wasn’t blue enough for you My man of  seaweed eyes And waves would dance and cry for you But you swam below the surface I tosed a coin into the well And you flipped it back to me A silly game of ask and tell (I wish we could’ve touched) The earth wasn’t hard enough for me The girl with broken lungs And birds would fly and cry for us But I hide behind the window You sent me a bottled message I tossed it back to you unopened A silly game of hide and seek (I wish I could’ve found you)
