Love, lay me down Slay me with whispers Reassure me that itâs 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 thatâs so terrifying And I want you to help put out the fire Cause I am an island, 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 thatâs so terrifying And I want you to help put out the fire Cause I am an island, you are the ocean And all of my sadness taken by the sea
And I want so much to believe That I wonât disappear in the water That I wonât always be swimming against the tide
And I want you and thatâs so terrifying And I want you to help put out the fire Cause I am an island and you are the ocean And all of my sadness taken by the sea, the sea I am an island, you are the ocean All of my sadness taken by the sea
