Above The Water Lyrics

Where's the affection

In our synchronized smiles

We give and take

The least amount required

Never got a new dog when the last one died

I'm back to life

Just a temporary lease

I won't resist

You can analyze me

I'm still the theme in all your best conspiracies

But oh

Didn't we have a song

That carried us along

Words cannot describe

That kind of loss

But I want you to know

That I tried with all of my heart

To keep our ship above the water

While the waves ripped us apart

I saw an angel

On the water with a light

The waves made her face

Hard to see

But she said something about the way the world works

When you don't believe you're free

But oh

Didn't we have a song

That carried us along

Words cannot describe

That kind of loss

But I want you to know

That I tried with all of my heart

To keep our ship above the water

While the waves ripped us apart

If we can keep floating

The skies just might open and show us the stars

We can navigate tomorrow

Domesticate our sorrows

And fly

Just a couple of kids

When we stayed up to the morning

I don't remember when we last saw the dawn

But oh

Didn't we have a song

That carried us along

Words cannot describe

That kind of loss

But I want you to know

That I tried with all of my heart

To keep our ship above the water

While the waves ripped us apart
