my hands turn to water in the sunlight on the coast
G#you push a boat from the shore and glide out D#to the sandbarC#

i remember you on the island in the summer when your mother was still alive
G#looking after you and saying D#its all the timeC#

Now your father somewhere on the atlantic tossed about and true
G#you know that if i had my waD#y I'd return to youC#  
Fmwhy does it have to be lonesome C#now
Fmwhy does it have to be lonesome C#nowD#  G#

remember that night way out past the house you and me curled up in the woods
G#i fell asleep trying not to D#worry about your momC#  
                              G#        D#      Edim        Fm(D#) C#  
Cause nobody knows a thing about growin up letting go
G#until its done and you just D#lose your homeC#
