When I go, won't let you follow hangin' on my sleeve
When I go, won't let you follow; ordinary rock around your neck
Ebb and flow is all we've got to ease what we've become
Ebb and flow is all we've got to tell our stories; get it straight for once
Just call it a dying man's request
Just call it a drowning man's last breath
But the love does not stop
Not once it's begun
You can have your balcony by the sea
Watch the waves crashing down, each one erasing me
Just call it a dying man's request
Just call it a hangman's mask
(humhumhum)
When I go won't let you follow, hangin' on my sleeve
When I go, won't let you follow; ordinary rock around your neck
Ebb and flow is all we've got to ease what we've become
Ebb and flow is all we've got to tell our stories, get it straight for once
Just call it a dying man's request
Just call it a drowning man's last breath
But the love does not stop
Not once it's begun
You can have your balcony by the sea
Watch the waves crashing down, each one erasing me
Just call it a dying man's request
Just call it a hang man's mask
Just say it's a matter for the courts
Just call it the scars upon my fists
Just place your head upon my own
Before this tie becomes a noose
Constantly bleeding, never listening
And when we meet we'll meet as friends
And for all those absent songs
I name you my blood, you're my blood
And we may dress ourselves as wolves
And leave me cold upon your doorstep
Because my ghosts are never gone
Because your baby's heart's still beating
Cause the love does not stop
Not once it's begun
No the love does not stop
The love does not stop
You can have your balcony by the sea
Watch the waves crashing down, each one erasing me
You can have your balcony by the sea, the sea, the sea
Watch the waves crashing down, each one erasing me
You can have your balcony by the sea, the sea, the sea
Watch the waves crashing down, each one erasing me
You can have your balcony by the sea, the sea, the sea
Watch the waves crashing down, each one erasing me
You can have your balcony by the sea, the sea, the sea
Watch the waves crashing down, each one erasing me
