Lyrics

[00:34.85] atlantic was born today The and I'll tell you how
[00:47.44] The clouds above opened up and let it out
[01:00.60] I was standing on the surface of a perforated sphere
[01:10.91] When the water filled every hole
[01:15.97] And thousands upon thousands made an ocean
[01:21.60] Making islands where no island should go
[01:29.98] Oh no
[02:02.86] Those people were overjoyedthey took to their boats
[02:17.48] I thought it less like a lake and more like a moat
[02:31.79] The rhythm of my footsteps crossing flood lands to your door have been silenced forever more
[02:45.85] The distance is quite simply much too far for me to row
[02:53.17] It seems farther than ever before
[02:59.54] Oh no
[03:02.98] I need you so much closer
[03:09.79] I need you so much closer
[03:17.35] I need you so much closer
[03:25.04] I need you so much closer
[03:32.48] I need you so much closer
[03:40.11] I need you so much closer
[03:47.42] I need you so much closer
[03:54.79] I need you so much closer
[05:30.10] Instrumental break
[05:49.22] I need you so much closer
[05:55.35] I need you so much closer
[06:03.41] I need you so much closer
[06:10.32] I need you so much closer
[06:32.69] So come on, come on
[06:47.02] So come on, come on
[07:02.29] So come on, come on
[07:17.21] So come on, come on
[07:24.15]
