Lissie's Heart Murmur

On the edge of the water where the ships pass byand the sound of your laughter in the endless skytips my head back, full of swimming thoughtsbeneath deep breathing that sinks so far downthat sings so far downand

I handle my business and

I know the prizeis of no consequence.

You have looked with your eyeswide open to what's inside, that sinks so far down

I'm in two

I went looking, went searching under the watersinking and pushing, till you pulled me underto where you are, to where we build our houseand so we sink so far downand we can't go back now, can't go back nowon the edge of the water where the ships pass byand the sound of your laughter in the endless skytips my head back, full of swimming thoughtsbeneath deep breathingnow

I stay holding this honesty with you

I went looking, went searching under the watersinking and pushing, till you pulled me underto where you are, to where we build our houseand so we sink so far downand we can't go back nowsink so far down when

I know you're aroundand

I can't go back now, can't go back now
