[Sung]:
When you dared me to jump
There was no one around
I just couldn't say no
As the willow seeds fell down
I was nervous, but determined
Like this was something, that I must do
The rocky edges, the river below
And the decisions, that we've come to
You told me "be calm
Just put your head down
Hold your breath and—"
And then you cut loose
So when my body hit the water
I was certain, that I loved you
[Verse 1]:
You've been around the world, I've never left the country
Sometimes it makes me question what it is you're getting from me
But in the tiny whirlpools and slow, drifting currents
I can hit you with the gospel from the stone skipper's sermon
Try to live it as if nothing is significant
Without letting the moments pa** with tumbleweed indifference
The river rinsed me; could've been science or divinity
Don't matter what we call it, I'm just happy what it did for me
[Sung]
[x2]:
As the willow seeds fell along the riverside
We were working up the courage so that we could dive
[X1]:
As the willow seeds fell along the riverside
Just you and I, as they fell along the riverside
[Verse 2]:
In a fraction of forever I've redefined my presence
With the face that mirrored the tint of the sun in the sky that's setting
The willow seeds floated to their final resting place like dying legends
I'm guessing maybe age and time will bless them
Used to long for more, pledged to the blind obsession
But answers lie everywhere and now my eyes detect them
So while some would reach in hopes to climb to Heaven
We grace the rocky edges, prepping for diving lessons
