Sea Wall

When I first knew I would be mostly alone, I knocked on your door

She said you weren’t home, and for you, she was lying

She stood there and stared like I was straight out the zoo

But I was just looking for you

I thought that I’d tell you that I’m feeling blue

Doesn’t seem so remarkable

Looking back on it now, they don’t clap you still bow

There’s no harm and no foul

In Colorado, we drank wine through the night

So many star lights

Laid out on the pavement, half drunk on the sight

You read parts of your journal, that you wrote about me

Carved us in a tree

As if I was some key that I thought set you free

Doesn’t seem so remarkable

Looking back on it now, they don’t clap, you still bow

There’s no harm and no foul

I guess now you’re a ghost that I dream of the most

And on some great coast

I see curls in the wind as the storm’s getting close

And you run down the beach, throwing sand from your toes

The rain tickles your nose

As you start to laugh, you turn into a rose

And I hold on to the stem, as the petal they fall

And I didn’t touch them all

So I lay you down and climb up the sea wall

But it’s just so tall

Doesn’t seem so remarkable

Looking back on it now, they don’t clap you still bow

There’s no harm and no foul

It doesn’t seem so remarkable

Looking back on it now, they don’t clap you still bow

There’s no harm and no foul
