[Verse 1]
I was a bird before the car pulled around
You're smiling out the driver’s seat
You're begging me up from under the tree to come and see the ocean this morning
I didn't tell you but when I lifted my head
I dreamed that you came for me in a submarine
I didn’t tell you but when I lifted my head
I dreamed that you came for me in a submarine
[Chorus]
Sand burns my feet as you beckon me out to sea, to see
Well I'm just as fine as a lighthouse pretending to lead you here to me
And I'm an anchor everybody's watching
[Verse 2]
As the sun turned in shame
You grabbed me by the hand to dance by the open flame
Well I was that blue feathered bird that you tamed
Laughing and tugging at my arm with a smile
You're drunk but I'm glad that we'll be here for a while
Laughing and tugging at my arm with a smile
You're drunk but I’m glad that we’ll be here for a while
[Chorus]
Sand burns my feet as you beckon me out to sea, to see
Well I'm just as fine as a lighthouse pretending to lead you here to me
And I’m an anchor everybody's watching
[Verse 3]
And your tiny hands mind the loans
And I know this just as well as I know that I wrote this song
Like I know these are cotes and I wrote down this song
And your tiny hands mind the loans
I could be realities away with you
Singing to me but I still hear you, perched in a tree
I could be realities away with you
Singing to me but I still hear you, perched in a tree
[Instrumental]
[Verse 4]
And next day we rode into the street market
We drove in traffic with nothing but leaves in a dam
So fashion some wings tied from backseat things as we sail
To downtown on time
To downtown on time
To downtown on time
To downtown on time
[Outro]
I didn't tell you though I thought a smarter nod
You were much more beautiful than I, more beautiful than I
