Every time you look at me, I think, "It's not so bad, you see" My heart still beats, time to lift the catch And then another day goes out to sea, you close your mouth, you try to be The brave one, the one who matters And if I could fly or change the tides Weather rocks into dust Then I'd know why I was mystified Cause baby, look what we've become Somewhere back in time we made each other laugh And I could see how that was good enough You never read my mind but you could fill a gap so fine And I loved the way you could make things up
And if I could fly or change the tides Weather rocks into dust Then I'd know why I was mystified Cause baby, look what we've become No one makes the rules you see You are in charge of destiny Sympathy and wine is all you seem to want And time to be a stranger to yourself Rigidly I stand about to seize on what I am Here's my existence, I'd put it on a shelf And if I could fly or change the tides Weather rocks into dust Then I'd know why I was mystified Cause baby, look what we've become
