[Verse 1]

You’re the light out on the sea

A twirling seed blown off the tree

Just floating in the wind, rolling on the waves

Slipping out of reach

You’re everything I need

I smell honey in your hair

I see longing in your stare

All I know is that you care

And all that I have left is only what I’ve built here

[Chorus]

Oh, won't you break me open like the sky at the sunrise?

Hear the thunder in this quiet trembling sigh

Hold on to the hand that was there

When you would stare away, as I would lay here

[Hook]

[Verse 2]

Oh, it took me by surprise when all the hunger left your eyes

And you never told me why

Only that it’s best if we try just to forget

But I’m not finished yet

Now the days turn into weeks, and we’re just taking turns to speak

And nothing’s clear to me

Only that you’re there with honey in your hair

[Chorus]

Oh, won't you break me open like the sky at the sunrise?

Hear the thunder in this quiet trembling sigh

Hold on to the hand that was there

When you would stare away, as I would lay here

[Hook]

[Outro]

As I would lay here

As I would lay here

As I would lay here
