lyrics

In the station, I was waiting
for the seven-thirty to come on by
a steam whistle harbinger shouting your name to the summer night
then you cascaded down the platform bathed in fog and amber light
I was crashing off the rocks onto the sand
 
In Nashville, we were shipwrecked
holding on as the grey moved in
we were two with the world around us though my resolve was wearing thin
as I dove deep in your southern drawl you asked if I could tell you when
I last saw the lights crashing off onto the sand

In my city, there's a park bench
where I drink my winter tea
I loose leaves to read your future but you said you never could read me
but you were so steeped in all I ever was and you'd bring me sweet release
light from you and I crashing off onto the sand
 
In the night sky, we were wide-eyed
as the shower slowly passed
You wished for resolution, I wished some moments could last
You turned me into something better
weathered rock to newborn glass
Lightning crashing off the rocks onto the sand
