Sailing

(album: What Could Be Better - 2020)

My body's aching
My ship's left the shore
Your eyes are waiting
My knees on the floor

And it's been so long
Since I had a friend
And it's been so long
Why can't we just pretend?

And I feel your laughter
Your warm, open stare
And I'm chasing after
Something that isn't there

And it's been so long
Since I had a friend
And it's been so long
Why can't we just pretend?

My heart will be pulled by this fleeting emotion
My mind will be swayed by this careful devotion
The sirens are sounding and they're so alarming
But I won't be moved 'til I hold you, my darling
It's starting to feel like I'm losing you now
As I reach for the sky and I beg you come down
I'm starting to feel this can't be real
It's starting to feel this can't be real
Oh-oo-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah

And it's been so long
Since I had a friend
