Rockin' on shelves and stones by the water
To find something that was mine
You who walk with me are so far away
I realize there's no further
I looked for your face in the sea
Out in the harbor, sail silhouetted
I thought you were coming for me
I reached out to touch you
It wasn't a lie when I called
And it wasn't true when I told you
It starts with a lie after all
I saw you wake, alone in the morning
You opened the window to see
Out in the dark, a storm all around us
Light in the clouds, in the light
I reached out to touch you,
it wasn't a lie when I called
It wasn't true when I told you
Then it starts with a lie after all
standing up close to the wall
Over stones, by the water,
feeling the wet of the rain
Echoes of footsteps vanish in darkness,
they disappear along with
I reached out to touch you,
it wasn't a lie when I called
If it wasn't true when I told you
It starts with a lie after all
I reached out to touch you
It wasn't a lie when I called
If it wasn't true when I told you
It starts with a lie after all
Yes, it starts with a lie after all
No, wasn't a lie after all
