Taken by the Sea

Love, lay me down, slay me with whispers,
Reassure me that it's alright.
I, I hit the deck,
I hit rock bottom.
But you saw me, then you caught me.
Shining like a ray of hope,
Swift like a turning sea,
Angel to comfort me,
Cradling my head in your hands.
I looked up at the sun
And the fog cleared, I saw you.

And I want you and that's so terrifying.
And I want you to help put out the fire.
Cause I am an island, you are the ocean.
And all of my sadness taken by the sea.

Fall, I took a fall, I took it easy.
On the surface I was perfect.
But down, way down below
I started believing.
I deserved it was I worthless.
Sinking like a rescue boat,
Washing right over me,
Vessel is struggling.
Waving both my hands in the air,
Then the blindness of love,
Then your arms all around me.

And I want you and that's so terrifying
And I want you to help put out the fire
Cause I am an island, you are the ocean
And all of my sadness taken by the sea

And I want so much to believe
That I won't disappear in the water,
That I won't always be swimming against the tide.

And I want you and that's so terrifying
And I want you to help put out the fire
Cause I am an island and you are the ocean
And all of my sadness taken by the sea, the sea.
I am an island,
You are the ocean.
All of my sadness taken by the sea.
