Taken By The Sea lyrics

love, lay me down

slay me with whispers

reassure me that it’s alright

I, I hit the deck, I hit rock bottom

but you saw me, then you caught me

shining like a ray of hope

swift like a turning sea

angel to comfort me

cradling my head in your hands

I looked up at the sun

and the fog cleared, I saw you

and I want you and that’s so terrifying

and I want you to help put out the fire

cause I am an island, you are the ocean

and all of my sadness taken by the sea

fall, I took a fall

I took it easy

on the surface I was perfect

but down, way down below

I started believing

I deserved it

was I worthless

sinking like a rescue boat

washing right over me

vessel is struggling

waving both my hands in the air

then the blindness of love

then your arms all around me

and I want you and that’s so terrifying

and I want you to help put out the fire

cause I am an island, you are the ocean

and all of my sadness taken by the sea

and I want so much to believe

that I won’t disappear in the water

that I won’t always be swimming against the tide

and I want you and that’s so terrifying

and I want you to help put out the fire

cause I am an island and you are the ocean

and all of my sadness taken by the sea, the sea

I am an island, you are the ocean

all of my sadness taken by the sea
