My Hands In the Water

I wasn't off just for a ride

More than I needed time

Know that I had no calm in my head

My hands in the water

And I'll go cold, cold, cold, cold, cold still water

I turned it off, thought you cheated

Want to act like you're not bleeding

Needs another planning

No, don't wanna take you drivin' 'round

I wanna be a child

And as I have to compromise

My hands in the water

No one else could, I told her (I told her)

Making up thoughts as I read her (I read her)

Rain falls harder, darling, I'll be there

Don't destruct it, I'll need it

Get on, get up to learn it all again

(Big city signs, they won't comfort me)

(Blue rivers, quietening is all that we need)

(Holding it close like a song you know)

Get on, get up to learn it all again

(No, big city signs, they won't comfort me)

(No silver birds would fly over the streets)

(Holding it close like a song you know)

Oh, would I lie, would I lie, would I lie?

Just to be in your arms?

Arms

I wasn't asking for the worst

Though time put me aside

And as you had to fall for miles

My hands in the water

Thanks to all, I've been your daughter

Sunlit moss, things get reeling

Your hand forever checking on my fever

Frequencies never leaving

Get on, get up to learn it all again

(Big city signs, they won't comfort me)

(Blue rivers, quietening is all that we need)

(Holding it close like a song you know)

Get on, get up to learn it all again

(No, big city signs, they won't comfort me)

(No silver birds would fly over the streets)

(Holding it close like a song you know)

Oh, would I lie, would I lie, would I lie?

Just to be in your arms?

Arms

I was forever changed

Once again

I was forever changed
