[Verse 1]
Frantic breakup, no goodbyes
I regret that, left that night
We went back to, being close
When her dad was diagnosed

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
Without notice, she flew back (She flew back)
Though only to, see her dad
Tried explaining, to her boss
Said he had to, lay her off

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
She called, I said hi
Her brother drove
Left her drinking, lost control
Salty with feathers, barely dry
The next month her father died
Father died (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
Father died (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
Father died (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)

[Verse 4]
Your life is an open sea
Solid grounding, you and me
I will hold you when the tide
Pulls you under everytime
Everytime (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
Everytime (Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh)
Everytime (Everytime)
Everytime (Everytime)
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh

[Instrumental Outro]
