Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, I know you're still with me
You're my compass and my sea
[Instrumental]
And I know you're still with me
You're my compass and my sea
[Instrumental]
Oh, I hope you can hear me
All those million miles away, you'd stay
[Instrumental]
'Cause I'd love you dearly
All those billion miles away
[Instrumental]
'Cause I've been around two times
And found that you're the only thing I need
'Cause I've been around two times
And found that you're the only thing I need
'Cause I've been around two times
And found that you're the only thing I need
'Cause I've been around two times
And found that you're my only friend in need
[Verse 2]
Green broken glass ocean
You break me, slow motion (Oh, oh)
No map and no message
It's the deepest green I know (Oh, oh)
But I know you're still with me
You're my compass and my sea (Oh, oh)
[Chorus]
'Cause I've been around two times
And found that you're the only thing I need
'Cause I've been around two times
And found that you're the only thing I need
'Cause I've been around two times
And found that you're the only thing I need
'Cause I've been around two times
And found that you're my only friend in need
[Instrumental]
'Cause I've been around two times
And found that you're the only thing I need
'Cause I've been around two times
And found that you're my only friend in need
'Cause I've been around two times
And found that you're the only thing I need
'Cause I've been around two times
And found that you're my only friend in need
[Instrumental]
'Cause I've been around two times
And found that you're the only thing I need
'Cause I've been around two times
And found that you're the only thing I need
'Cause I've been around two times
And found that you're the only thing I need
'Cause I've been around two times
And found that you're my only friend in need
