Pentimento - Almost Atlantic lyrics

...and it caught me off guard The way things that I was so sure of simply crumbled away I woke up with winter inside of bones I'd never been so sure of anything You were the ocean, I was the sand beneath your waves And all the things that pushed us together Are all the things that pulled us apart But I figure this is best Considering my intentions Just to chase, chase, chase until I'm satisfied Then throw you away You were the ocean. I was the sand beneath your waves Everything I ever was ultimately added up to so much less than I had ever hoped for I am the furthest thing away from what you see in me But there have been times when there was no difference between you and I I wondered what sort of lesson was built in to all of this What should I take away? Learning from this sort of thing isn't easy when Your solutions are mistakes You were the ocean. I was the sand beneath your waves Everything I ever was ultimately added up to so much less than I had ever hoped for I am the furthest thing away from what you see in me But there have been times when there was no difference between you and I And you said all I ever do is run away... I am the ocean. You are the sand beneath my waves Everything I ever was ultimately added up to so much less than I had ever hoped for I am the furthest thing away from what you see in me But there have been times when there was no difference between you and I I am the ocean. You are the sand beneath my waves
