Bare Feet on Water (wersja 2)

Verse

Candle's lit on the edge of my bed

You said you'd leave me at dawn

But I watched the clock go slow instead

Your keys dropped down between us like rain

And the city outside started to hum again

I'm counting the hours since your door closed tight

Every tick feels like a brand new light

Pre-Chorus

Tell me how it ends when you're gone

What does the morning look like, alone?

Chorus

Bare feet on water, bare feet in the sun

Learning to breathe before I've begun

It's sweeter than chasing what we had found

Sweeter still, watching this town turn around

Every heartbeat's a chance to start

To find out who I am without your heart

So let the river pull me down

Bare feet on water, turning it all around

Verse

Window's open wide like a mouth that won't close

Your shadow's gone but the light keeps going slow

The neighbors' kids play outside my windowpane

Their laughter is something I've never known before

I took your favorite record off the shelf

Now the needle drops into its own rhythm, itself

Pre-Chorus

Tell me how it ends when you're gone

What does the morning look like, alone?

Chorus

Bare feet on water, bare feet in the sun

Learning to breathe before I've begun

It's sweeter than chasing what we had found

Sweeter still, watching this town turn around

Every heartbeat's a chance to start

To find out who I am without your heart

So let the river pull me down

Bare feet on water, turning it all around

Bridge

Maybe love's not something you take home

But maybe it's something that helps you roam

I won't pretend like I don't miss you still

But watch how easy it is to smile

The current carries me out past the bend

Every goodbye becomes a door that swings open then

Chorus

Bare feet on water, bare feet in the sun

Learning to breathe before I've begun

It's sweeter than chasing what we had found

Sweeter still, watching this town turn around

Every heartbeat's a chance to start

To find out who I am without your heart

So let the river pull me down

Bare feet on water, turning it all around
