Like the largest ships at sea
Buckling under treacherous weather
And I′m not sure if this vessel can take much more
But we'll stay afloat like we always have
And we rushed down below the main deck
Seeking some kind of safety
But I found comfort in your breathing
Wrapped in darkness till morning
And we hold each other tight
And I′ll run my fingers through every strand of your hair
I can't promise things will be alright
And we′ll write down our feelings
And fold up these parts of our lives into neat little squares
Cherish the words written on each line of both papers
Hold them close to revisit
I still have that recurring dream
Where we drown in our sleep
Always awoken to the feeling of your limbs wrapped around me
Like ropes binding my hands and feet
And I'd stay up all night
My eyes trace your outline
Shipwrecked but not broken
Not lost, but never to be found
The light peaked through the clouds
Where my head resides most days
And I watched you walk along the edge of the rocks
The light bouncing off the tree tops
Like a beautiful mirage you were gone like a ghost that haunts
A ghost that lingers close by to watch everything unfold
