We were brought head first into the unbearable light Like ships that would set sail out from the San Francisco night It was my fortune we'd collide at sea And like the ghost you'd rescue me You can call me wolf if you please And we'll watch the fog roll in And you'll bury me at sea Thoughts of you still chase me like a shadow So I hide in lightless corners and drink my way into the shallows And one day when I wash ashore our love can come and go once more
Seems that's what nights like these are for I wish that I could feel your faith Like a softly sanded shore where the salty ocean breaks One day I'll sleep among these waves And no undying soul will ever leave this lonely place Maybe someday you could come and find me When you've got nothing to believe Maybe someday we could be together Down at the bottom of the sea
