DSomehow it always knows when I’m Gfeeling low
So G7I’m gonna anchor down and Cwait till it comes around
Leave the rest of the Gworld behind, yeah, that’s how I’ll Dpass the time
Till I catch my Gsecond wind
Get back up and gain Amcontrol B7again
Find the strength I Clost back then
When you stopped loving meD  
I guess I’ll just sGtay out here until I
Know the cAmoast C/Bis cClear
Sit and watch the Amtide C/Broll Cin

There’s a Dpeace in the way I feel when the Gwater’s still
And as Dlong as it’s calm out here I’ve got Gtime to kill
But as G7soon as it starts to stir I’ll lose Ctrack of the way things were
Float away on the Gopen air, but I’m not going Danywhere
