lyrics

Come away with me, I will take you to the sea
And we'll stand on the rocks and feel like we are free
If only for a little while. I will try to make you smile,
And I will try to reach the stars, but they're always just too far away
From me. I can see, but I can't breathe no more.

Cut me with your knife and bleed away my life
Because I would rather die than see the fear in your eyes
Each and every day; the fears I can't seem to allay.
The words you do not speak like the echoes of the deep
As we swim into the bay; watch me float away.

Time is cruel, and men are fools, and the words mean nothing any more.
Put me to sleep in my coffin deep and lay down on the floor
And close your eyes until everything is still and it's dawn again,
And I'm born again in you. It's what I'll do.

Come away with me, I will take you to the sea.
Come away with me, I will take you to the sea.
