Here's the lyrics:
Well, this is just a simple song,
To say what you done.
I told you 'bout all those fears,
And away they did run.
You sure must be strong,
And you feel like an ocean being warmed by the sun.

When I was just nine-years-old,
I swear that I dreamt,
Your face on a football field,
And a kiss that I kept,
Under my vest.
Apart from everything,
With the heart in my chest.

Chorus:
I know that things can really get rough,
When you go it alone,
Don't go thinking you gotta be tough,
To bleed like a stone.
Could be there's nothing else in our lives so critical,
As this little hole.

My life in an upturned boat,
Marooned on a cliff.
You brought me a great big flood,
And you gave me a lift.
Girl, what a gift.
Will you tell me with your tongue,
And your breath was in my lungs,
And we float up through the rift.

Chorus:
I know that things can really get rough,
When you go it alone.
Don't go thinking you gotta be tough,
To bleed like a stone.
Could be there's nothing else in our lives so critical,
As this little hole.

Well, this would be a simple song,
To say what you done.
I told you 'bout all those fears,
And away they did run.
You sure must be strong,
When you feel like an ocean being warmed by the sun.

Remember walking a mile to your house,
Aglow in the dark?
I made a fumbling play for your heart,
And the act struck a spark.
You wore a charm on the chain that I stole,
Especial for you.
Love's such a delicate thing that we do,
With nothing to prove,
Which I never knew.

@SteelsCrow yeah, I imagine a lot of people wouldn't. That's really my only scheme of easy advertising. I'm glad I've been able to reach fans such as yourself who are willing to see what I'm about. Thanks for your kind words
