The Flood lyrics

Turn the lights out
in the light house
I saw you coming
felt the ship wreck

Saw the wreckage
I heard you yelling
just in a mess
when I saw your
reflection in the sand

Wondering where
you were washed up
oh I ran to the water

I can put my hands
down in it

But I won't bring
nothing up

Sitting on the shore
all day waiting on
the tide to come
but you can't hold on
to water

It fills you up
but never stays
it's only good to
wash away today

And you're loving me
like water
you're slippingthrough
my fingers touch
a natural disaster love

Bringing on the flood
the flood
love me like a flood
a flood

Bring it on
stayed a night out
by the beach house
it's all so quiet

Lit a candle
by the window
so you might find it

Hope you know you'll
always have a place
to call your home

Still I can't help but think
I could have saved you
from drowning

I can put my hands
down in it yeah
but I won't bring
nothing up

Sitting on the shore
all day just waiting on
the tide to come
but you can't hold on
to water

It fills you up
but never stays
it's only good to
wash away today

And you're loving me
like water
you're slipping through
my fingers touch
a natural disaster love

Bringing on the flood
the flood
love me like a flood
a flood

Bring it on
I knew the waves
were icy
when I felt them
all retreating

Went to take a dive
in the deep end
oh what was I thinking?
but you can't hold on
to water

It fills you up
but never stays
it's only good to
wash away today

And you're loving me
like water
you're slipping through
my fingers touch
a natural disaster love

Bringing on the flood
the flood
love me like a flood
the flood
bring it on

Rising and a-falling
in my dreams

Rising and the falling
of my tears
that fill the ocean
the ocean, the ocean

My tears
that fill the ocean
the ocean, the ocean
