deep the water (acoustic version)

When your hair spills light on my shoulders
And your eyes wide; emerald green
You are the love-warm when it gets colder
The silver sunset watching the sea

But as the grey notes sing through the windows
Where do you go? Why do you leave?
As the waves grow, harder the days go
Darling I'm folding, I'm on my knees

You give me nothing, when there's nothing else
So deep, the water
But you're hiding in the shallows and you come running
When you're running out
So deep, the water
So deep, the water and I'm left here drowning out

And your heart weighs down on my shoulders
And your eyes wide lose me at sea
And your words make a fire that smolders
You are the moon pulling tides over me

Giving me grey notes, scream through the windows
Where do you go? Why do you leave?
And as the waves grow, harder the days go
Darling I'm folded, I'm on my knees

You give me nothing, when there's nothing else
So deep, the water
But you're hiding in the shallows then you come running
When you're running out
So deep, the water
So deep, the water and I'm left here drowning out

Losing light, beneath the silent sky I'm
Losing light, above the ocean wide I'm
Losing light, I'm sinking slowly
As we're losing light my love

You give me nothing, when there's nothing else
So deep, the water
But you're hiding in the shallows then you come running
When you're running out
So deep, the water
So deep, the water and I'm left here drowning out

When there's nothing else
So deep, the water
But you're hiding in the shallows then you come running
When you're running out
So deep, the water
So deep, the water and I'm left here drowning out

So deep, the water
So deep, the water
So deep, the water and I'm left here drowning out
So deep, the water
So deep, the water
So deep, the water and I'm left here drowning out
