Dog's Eye View - Waterline lyrics

Well i'm walking with my father's ghost And he's talking to me He says, "i'm sorry its so hard to be free" He says, "i knew you when i was so young And you will never know me Except for pictures that you might find From when you were three or four or five" Down at the waterline I'm at the waterline tonight At the waterline At the waterline tonight Now i'm talking with my sister Who says she knows you well She says she hears yuo in her hallway at night And sometimes she can smell you But me, i have to make you up From the smallest clues i can find Me, i have to dig you up From the corners of my mind We're at the waterline At the waterline tonight We're at the waterline At the waterline tonight I built this boat for you my friend And you're not here to get in I'm wondering should i let it go And see if i can swim Yeah, i'm standing with this boat i built With water at my knees I thought that i might find you here But it lokks like its just me Here at the waterline At the waterline tonight The waterline tonight I'm walking with my father's ghost He's talking to me He says "i'm sorry"
