Intro
RE SIm RE SIm
Verse 1:
RE SIm
Along the quayside you were a light
RE SIm
And I, a reflection, lay across the river and the night
RE SIm
You were transfixed on me and I was mesmerised
SOL
And names were whispered to and by you and I
Verse 2:
RE SIm
The tides began to steal away from morning light
RE SIm
As night receded river walls seemed to grow high
RE SIm
Then you climbed down into my arms and closed your eyes
SOL
When we awoke we had been drifting
Chorus
RE
We didn't mean to go to sea
SIm/LA
We didn't mean to drift away
SIm
We never planned to up and leave
SOL
But still the sea took us away
RE
We saw no lands on the horizon
SIm/LA
No distant shores along the fray
SIm
Yet all the more we found ourselves
SOL
When we got lost at sea that day
Verse 3:
RE SIm
Timbers creaked, all else was quiet and relieved
RE SIm
Except the infant waves that licked and lapped along the eaves
RE SIm
It had to dawn on us, our truth had been believed
SOL
Beyond all lies and jealousy
Verse 4:
RE
We sailed high wind half-mast
SIm RE
Due north, towards the edge of our dreams grateful borders
SIm
That matched our speed to stay ahead
RE
The afternoon was bleeding to death
SIm
And soon the sky was racing red
SOL
To see the stars remove their hats out of respect
(Chorus Repeat)
