lyrics

okay,
so I haven't the poetic tongue,
and we're both so very young
but I've just gotta tell you...

I feel safer,
in your arms
than protected by all the alarms
whose circuits cant compute
a face and smile just so cute

with your quirky ways
and the fantastic 'everydays'
which I'll wake up knowing
I've got you

it's not just love
it's all I'll ever know
all I'll ever live for
knowing I've got the bestest friend
but wait there's so much more

you'll be,
my water
that my fishy heart can't deny
as the center of attention
despite how shy

I want you to surround me
I want you always here
as I take my breaths
and smile, from ear to ear

I'll pinch myself
and adjust my eyes
and come to realize
that we've got some living to do
outside where we thrive

because the sun will take you
as far as these eyes can't see
almost all evaporated
what a mess my tanks come to be

and as my path seems a bit too grim
a beautiful cloud strolls in
raining down so radiant
and so my fishy tale is...
fin.
