We can see so far across the sky 



We can see so far from here 



Across the water 



We can see the tops of the trees 



I'm holding my arms out steadily 



I'm keeping my first secure 

To keep me from sinking 



To keep me from falling to sleep 



Without even a wonder 



In this evening, just fading away 

And if the water comes up to our necks 



And it's easier just to give in 



I will remember what I learned before the flooding came 



I will remember who I was before the walls gave way. 

To keep me from sinking 



To keep me from falling to sleep 



Without even a wonder 



In this evening, just fading away
