lyrics

I watched you wade into the water with a smile on your face
You were dancing in the waves
Seemed like another perfect day
Then a pretty big wave came and swept you away

You drifted off into the distance and I tried to build a raft
It wasn't ship-shape it was sad
Then I thought about my dad
I was not to try and fix things, we could hire a man for that

Then I thought about your dad and how he always wished he'd had
A son

Wind picked up a little conditions worsened like they will
Waves reared up like drunkards
Sparring feelings they can't kill
With currents and the chaos you were pretty still

I abandoned my intention with that quest I couldn't hack
Drifted with the detritus
Haven't looked back
I ain't since seen my reflection but I'm sure it's looking bad

I realized a few years too late that I loved you
You realized that I didn't in a fraction of the time
If I'd have been anybody else it's a safe bet I'd have handled this better
But let's ignore my neuroses and
Blame the weather
