Rachel Ries - Hands To Water lyrics

My hands turn to water in the sunlight on the coast Push a boat from shore and glide out to the sandbar I remember you on the island in the summer When your mother was still alive Looking after you and saving us all the time Now your father's somewhere on the Atlantic Tossed about and true You know that if I had my way I'd return to you Why does it have to be lonesome now Why does it have to be lonesome now Remember that night way out past the house You and me curled up in the woods I fell asleep trying not to worry about your mom Nobody knows a thing about growing up Letting go Until it's done and you just You just lose your hope Why does it have to be quiet now Why does it have to be quiet now You were born on the waves You were born to be saved You were born on the waves You were born to be saved One more time Just one more time Give me one more time My heart turns to water in the sunlight on the coast Push a boat from shore and glide out past the sandbar
