lyrics

i don’t wanna be the one
caught waiting downtown
caught in a rainstorm without a
cloud
(you thought i would just be
hanging around)
baby you believe you can set it
up, one for every town
& no one’s gonna stop & ask
what’s up?
why me this time around?

if you believe we were made to
love
then you’d be the only angel
that i ever had a dream of
& i’ve dreamed about a
thousand loves
& they’re all of you

even the oceans can turn
to rust & what’ll we do with
the salt & dust that is clinging
to our clothes?
as we’re calling hallelujah to the
back of god
& he says the waves i sent
were not for the faint of heart

i’m your girl
& i always have been the only
one can see the light on your
skin
but i’ll take my time telling you
what i see or where i’ll be
when your light shines on me
& it calls me back to sea like it
always does
