Love, lay me down
Slay me with whispers
Reassure me that it's alright
I, I hit the deck
I hit rock bottom
But you saw me then you caught me
Shining like a ray of hope, swift like a turning sea
Angel to comfort me
Cradling my head in your hands
I looked up at the sun and the fog cleared I saw you
And I want you and that's so terrifying
And I want you to help put out the fire
Because I am an island
And you are the ocean
And all of my sadness taken by the sea
Fall, I took a fall
I took it easy
On the surface I was perfect
But down
Way down below I started believing
I deserved it
Was I worthless?
Sinking like a rescue boat
Washing right over me
Vessel is struggling
Waving both my hands in the air
Then the blindness of love
Then your arms all around me
And I want you and that's so terrifying
And I want you to help put out the fire
Because I am an island
And you are the ocean
And all of my sadness taken by the sea
And I want so much to believe
That I won't disappear in the water
That I won't always be swimming against the tide
And I want you and that's so terrifying
And I want you to help put out the fire
Because I am an island
And you are the ocean
And all of my sadness taken by the sea, the sea
Because I am an island
And you are the ocean
And all of my sadness taken by the sea
