You Brought Me Up

歌詞

You brought me up and out of the water You brought me up to forget I had ever been, I could ever breathe In the water under your heart I darkened your door and your days you said You couldn’t sleep the night With the sound of the sea hard on my heels Climbing the stairs to your bed (Chorus:) You promised me gloves from the skins of the fishes The smile of the dolphin for a ring in my hands But you left me with nothing but a mouthful of air And promises wide as the ocean You left me down for once and for all You left me out in the open Under mackerel skies, high and dry And out of the reach of our sea Way out of reach and out of my depth I wear your love like a skin That hurts when anyone touches me Where you left me down For once and for all Way out of reach of our sea (Chorus / repeat first verse)
