Down to the Sea
She moved on blamin' the cold
Kept a string of lovers on hold
Left her curse to take the fall
She just turned her back on it all
Summer fades then winter leaves
That big old house became a den of thieves
Hands are raised against the law
Kinda restores your faith once more
But sometimes life ain't what it seems
A lover's ghost can stalk your dreams
Lead your soul into despair
Until its more than one body can bear
I remember she said
Let's go down to the sea
Big sky forever
The ocean wild and free
Let's go down to the sea
And you can pour that water over me
No sweet goodbyes
No awkward lies
Shut your eyes
And cut those ties
Don't look back on what you've lost
Never stop to count the cost
Shut your eyes and cut those ties
Don't even whisper your sweet goodbyes
The road is long our time is short
The journey's harder than you first thought
Could lead your soul into despair
Until it's more than you can bear
