Come and rescue me
From in the water deep
Careful now don’t lose your aim
The road ahead is clear again
I haven’t found it yet

You drift away so slow
In the ebb and flow
So I landed on my feet
The steadiness is bittersweet
It feels the same when you’re pushed
Out and away and into the crush

In all the hidden pleasures you find
In what you’re looking for

This will be an uncertain time for us my love

I can hear the echo of your voice in my head

Singing my love

I can see your face there in my hands my love

I have been blessed by your grace and care my love

Singing my love

There's a place for us sitting here waiting for the sun

And it calls me back into the safe arms that I know

I see your shadow on the street now

I hear you push through the rusty gate

Click of your heels on the concrete

Waiting for a knock, coming way too late

It seems an age since I've seen ya
Count down as the weeks trickle into days

So you come in and put your bags down

I know there's something in the air

How can I do this to you right now?

You're over there when i need you here..

blow the candles out

raise a glass to the night

let all the tension out

you've been wound up so tight
it's a tender trap to plan ahead all the time

if you measure the world by what you leave behind

welcome to the saving grace

welcome to the saving grace

theres a sunset on the road

reappearing as we go

keep the glass topped up

it's not over just yet

In all that he takes in all that he shows

The higher the stakes the lower the blows

And all the mistakes that he's never known
Whatever it takes he'll be stealing the show

Now he nervously shakes as we rattle his stage

But he's happy to be stuck back in his halcyon days

Now we're trying hard to reconcile a history of shame

But he reinforced the barriers that keep it the same

Welcome to the new suburban fable
Dressed up like a tomb inside a cradle
If you're playing peanuts you get monkeys
Better save that silly money for junkets

Come and rescue me
From in the water deep
Careful now don’t lose your aim
The road ahead is clear again
I haven’t found it yet

You drift away so slow
In the ebb and flow
So I landed on my feet
The steadiness is bittersweet
It feels the same when you’re pushed
Out and away and into the crush

In all the hidden pleasures you find
In what you’re looking for

Tell me where I'm

supposed to begin

an unhappy life working

some kind of dead end job

for everything you thought you had

has gone from worse to bad

Lean to the side

whisper it quiet

the end is in sight to working

all night around the clock

for everything you thought you had

has gone from worse to bad

But it's not my kind of scene oh yeah

footprints on the other side

It's coming round again

slowly creeping hand

of time and its command

soon enough it comes

and settles in its place
its shadow in my face

puts pressure in my day

This life well it's slipping right through my hands

these days turned out nothing like I had planned

It's coming round again

the slowly creeping hand

of time and its command

it settles in its place

What are you looking for this time around

Might need something to bring you to ground
Everything turning me inside and out

What are you looking for this time around

It's coming in and over

It's waiting at your shoulder

You can see we should be together now

Wait for me I'm pulling it together now

What are you looking for this time around

Just keep telling what you have found

For every story gone untold

There's a secret that dissolves

So many pieces still unsolved

You're not quite who you think you are
Can see the symptoms from afar

I'm hosing down your shooting star

There you go again to fall

Waiting on a friend to call

If you wait I'm gonna drive it home

Kiss you every time the rains appear

Sometimes we wish for far away

If we never make it back

to how far we've come along this way

we search around for solid ground

that will help to carry us away

if the memories I left throw the light

that helps to guide you through

we trickle down to our goodbyes

but a part of me will stay with you

what we've spoken over time

never broken or compromised

dream on together

leaning against each other
