I went to the water´s edge, forgot I couldn´t swim
I went to the water´s edge, all ready to jump in
I saw the water shimmer
I heard the wind howl
I saw my own reflection
I just can´t see it now

You say it´s the way of the world
To somehow co-exists
That eventually life unfurls
A path to happiness

So I whisper your little secret
And repeat it under my breath
I´ll save it for you in my heart
In case we both forget

Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me
I am gripped by a loneliness
Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me
I´d be released in your tenderness
I´d be released in your tenderness

I went to the water´s edge and saw my life eclipse
I went to the water´s edge and then felt myself slip
I dreamed that I was floating, just coast until I grew fins
I want to catch this tide back home and feel you again

Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me
I am gripped by a loneliness
Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me
I´d be released in your tenderness
Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me
I am gripped by a loneliness
Oh, I wish you could wrap yourself around me
I´d be released in your tenderness
I´d be released in your tenderness
I´d be released in your tenderness
