She hits you like a waterfall, without ever touching the ground
With her fossil fueling in the wintertime your solstice's gonna wait around
Half the time she's movin with the canyons, and shoe only stops to gain control
Cos if your wind gets caught with denial, you better know how to soothe a soul
Subconsciously realizing every touch, from a serpent who's about to shed her skin
Your heart accepts her lucradive promises, her end is where she begins
Your head is just a foggy space, hearing the sweet remarks from the minds of old
friends
I guess the question that I can't convince you on is the question that never ends

And when it all patches up, the wounds you've suffered from your past
F C F C G*
I'll take your hand, but I can't promise it will last
G F
Cos you chose last time it wouldn't last
BACK TO Dm and C for 2nd verse
Stones in the skies of dawn, she only leaves cover when it rains
Whirl your ambitions with a stir rod, cos something like that is instant pain
She's just as simple as the next girl, but still complex to you and me
We can curse her for getting ahead of us, but she's still miles away from where
she wants to be
She might drop you a line in the future, she'll hook you and make you the bait
Cos once she's decided she forgives you, she says, "Someday I'll be back, just
wait"
Feelings might erode but with decades, she'll chip away at your heart with time
Knowing that you're thinking and still waiting, it's the emotions that blow your
mind
PRE-CHORUS AGAIN
CHORUS:
