Lyrics

[00:19.50] Ice has formed
[00:23.90] And there's snow between the tracks
[00:29.87] And I have seen the surface tear and
[00:36.50] I can't look back
[00:40.30]
[00:42.35] And cool low sun
[00:48.40] Has blinded you for days
[00:52.00] From horizon to horizon
[00:56.50] Can I dream this all away
[01:05.40]
[01:05.60] But over the water
[01:10.50] Over the water
[01:15.43] Over the sea
[01:22.51] There's you shining bright
[01:29.45] In a sea of fools
[01:32.76] Oh I can sing you out of this
[01:39.67] Can shake your mermaids blues
[01:43.30]
[01:46.00] Come with me
[01:50.30] For alone I fear the tide
[01:56.25] It's calling me and dragging me
[02:00.30] And I think it's time
[02:07.40]
[02:09.02] But over the water
[02:13.90] Over the water
[02:19.80] Over the water
[02:25.78] Over the sea
[02:40.56]
[02:59.00] Shape your mouth
[03:03.50] To fit these words of war
[03:08.79] I see the arrows falling backwards
[03:14.10] Burning for a cause
[03:20.45]
[03:22.60] I'll swim with you
[03:27.67] Until my lungs give out
[03:32.20] Oh I can raise you from the deep
[03:37.10] Or drown with you in doubt
[03:41.45]
[03:45.10] But over the water
[03:50.10] Over the water
[03:56.20] Over the water with you
[04:06.40] With you, with you ...
[04:24.50]
