The sun goes down,
And in the background of the portrait I painted of you,
The lights come on as buldings cut through the dotted skyline.
I remember you telling me something I always forget.
But then something goes wrong,
And the thousand lights, they all flash out and out,
Like memories of you I've planted in front of all of my dreams.
And I find myself drowning off the coast of and eastern shoreline,
Without you here to save me.
Sinking deeper in my love for you every fucking second I'm alone.
Then I suffocate.
Am I through with you?
I can't make myself believe I am.
And after all these words I've sung to you,
You'd think maybe once you'd listen.
But Spring's got me again and I want you.
I keep telling myself, it's 6 o'clock and not dark out,
That must mean that April's on its way.
But as soon as I believe that I can take care of myself,
And I don't need only you to satisfy and hold me,
I won't be alone.
And maybe when the time comes,
I won't find myself drowning off the coast of an eastern shoreline,
Because you'll be there to save me.
But only then, will I believe I am whole.
