on shells and stones by the water
To find something that was mine
You who walk with me are so far away
I realize there's no further
distance than time
I saw your face,
I look for your face in the sea
Out in the harbor, sail silhouetted
Deep in my heart
I thought you were coming for me
I reached out to touch you
It wasn't a lie when I called
And it wasn't true when
I told you I loved you
It starts with a lie after all
I saw you wake, alone in the morning
You opened the window to see
Out in the dark, a storm all around us
Light in the clouds, in the light
Do you ever see me
I reached out to touch
When I told you
I loved you
Watching standing stand
ing up close
Standing without you,
standing alone with no shadow at all
Walkin' along over stones
by the water,
feelin' the wet of the rain
The echoes of footsteps
vanish in darkness
They disappear along with
the sound of my name
I reached out to touch you
It wasn't a lie when I called
If it wasn't true when I told you I loved you
It starts with a lie after all
I reached out and touched you
It wasn't a lie when I called
And it wasn't true
When I told you I loved you
It starts with a lie after all
Yes, it starts with a lie after all
No, it wasn't a lie after all
I'm... I'm I'm I'm I'm
I'm I'm I'm
