[Verse 1]
I don’t need the sea to keep me swimming
I don’t need the sun to keep me warm
I don’t need the sky to keep me dreaming
I don’t need the beach to calm me down
I don’t need the trees to keep me singing
I don’t need the wind to cool me off
I don’t need a thought to run away to
I don’t need to hear a thought at all
[Chorus]
The envelope that I open
It holds all my emotions
You smell like you
Like you always do
It’s overwhelming
It’s haunting
I don’t need the sun
I don’t need the sun
[Verse 2]
I don’t need the roots to keep me grounded
I don’t need a cloud to drift away
I don’t need the earth to sink my hands through
I don’t need hear a sound today
I don’t need a breath of oxygen
I don’t need a drop of waterfall
I don’t need a taste to touch or cling to
I want to smell it all
[Chorus]
The envelope that I open
It holds all my emotions
You smell like you
Like you always do
It’s overwhelming
It’s haunting, haunting
[Refrain]
I don’t need the sea to keep me swimming
I don’t need the sun to keep me warm
I don’t need the sky to keep me dreaming
I don’t need the beach to calm me down
[Chorus]
The envelope that I open
It holds all my emotions
You smell like you
Like you always do
It’s overwhelming
It’s haunting
I don’t need the sun
I don’t need the sun
