Daughter of the Water Lyrics

Remember those summers long ago

We'd meet at the camp and then go down to the coast

Start our mornings worshipping God

And then lie naked in the sand almost like we'd forgot

Drowned our sorrows swimming in desire

You played in the band, I sang in the choir

When we were everything we both wanted to be

If only in our youth, our sins could set us free

Daughter of the water, I was your seeker of the sun

So young, so in love

We learned to see through each other's eyes

Through salty seas and summer evening skies

Oh, daughter of the water

I was your seeker of the sun

We walked along the pavement in bare feet

Wrote our names with our toes in wet concrete

And ran like hell when the groundskeeper found us

He could never understand the summer love that surrounded us

I'd sneak out through the sun room of my Mom-Mom's house

Find you under the streetlight in your best summer blouse

And we'd climb in the car with our older friends

Head down to Henri's bar near Townsend's inlet

Daughter of the water, I was your seeker of the sun

So young, so in love

We learned to see through each other's eyes

Through salty seas and summer evening skies

Oh, daughter of the water

I was your seeker of the sun

Limewire Alex made our fake IDs

Said "go wherever you wanna go as long as you've got these"

And so we didn't focus much on what might be our future

We were alive in the moment, cause that's what found us sooner

We'd eat hawaiian pizza and drink mai tais

Play crazy eights til sunrise

And listen to Marley all the way back home

Snuggling in the beach seat of Kehoe's old ford probe

Daughter of the water, I was your seeker of the sun

So young, so in love

We learned to see through each other's eyes

Through salty seas and summer evening skies

Oh, daughter of the water

I was your seeker of the sun

Oh

Oh

Daughter of the water

Do you remember me

I was your seeker of the sun

Daughter of the water

I was your seeker of the sun
