[Verse 1]
Out under bright silver skies, I accept it
Quick skip to the end, let you go
Still single frames from our life
Stream before my eyes
Like a distant slideshow
[Pre-Chorus]
How were we to know
The river ever would bend?
Split apart at the end

[Chorus]
Seats on the last flight

Best of the first days

Split apart at the end
Enemies of the ocean

[Chorus]
Seats on the last flight
Sunsets and moonlight
How were we to know
The river ever would bend?
Split apart at the end
Enemies of the ocean
Enemies of the ocean
Enemies of the ocean
