Outset Island

(album: Hot Freaks - 2013)

There was once a girl
I'd felt I'd known forever
Her name in every song
Her smile in every summer
Across the continent
We'd go on adventure
But now, we are apart
But I still picture us
Living in the same house
Somewhere by the sea
It wouldn't have to be much
A place for her and me
Yeah that'd be everything
That we would ever need
Now when the night winds beat upon our house
The windows shake and our power goes out
But isn't it amazing, me and her and me and her
Summertime is gone, I go about my business
I would give anything, to hold her hand just one more time

I'm scared that I
Won't ever change
I think about
Her every day
I can't let go
I can't go on
I'm not ok
At all, oh

She was by my side
When I first saw the ocean
1, 000 miles wide
And we both dipped our toes in
And stayed there for a while
And watched the sky turn red and orange, yeah yeah
Later the stars came out
There we sat in the sand
With her hand in my hand

I'm scared that I
Won't ever change
I think about
Her every day
I can't let go
I can't go on
I'm not ok
At all, oh

I made ways to forget how it felt when we were alone (lone)
That could never be (lone) real

I'm scared that I
Won't ever change
I think about
Her every day
I can't let go
I can't go on
I'm not ok
At all, oh
