Saltwater Songtext
von Quiet Light

You′re the sea of saltwater
I was looking for a drink
Drank you up with a straw
Now I'm losing everything

If I, if I, if I, if I keep trying
T-t-t-t-t-t-trying
If I, if I, if I, if I keep trying
T-t-t-t-t-t-trying

Drowning in something celestial
In your lotus eyes
Trying to drive, but it′s too crowded
They're all trying to stay alive

If I, if I, if I, if I keep trying
T-t-t-t-t-t-trying
If I, if I, if I, if I keep trying
T-t-t-t-t-t-trying


I'm gonna love you ′til my days get old
I′m gonna love you 'til my heart explodes
I′m gonna love you 'til I sing you a song
About everything in a love gone wrong

Gonna sit here at the subway station
Gonna read the paper and talk in a language
I don′t know, that you don't know
That you don′t know, that you don't know

That you don't, d-don′t, d-don′t, d-don't know
That you don′t know, that you don't know
That you don′t, d-don't, d-don′t, d-don't know
That you don't know, that you don′t know

You′re the sand and I'm the baby
Who′s stepping in the bit
Push me and I'll just cry harder
And make you wanna quit

If I, if I, if I, if I keep trying
T-t-t-t-t-t-trying
If I, if I, if I, if I keep trying
T-t-t-t-t-t-trying


I′m gonna love you 'til my days get old
I′m gonna love you 'til my heart explodes
I'm gonna love you ′til I cry on my pancakes
Listen to Jewel to ease the heartache

Gonna sit here at the piano bench
Gonna see my neighbors and talk in a language
I don′t know, that you don't know
That you don′t know, that you don't know

That you don′t, d-don't, d-don′t, d-don't know
That you don't know, that you don′t know
That you don′t, d-don't, d-don′t, d-don't know
That you don′t know, that you don't know

That you don′t, d-don't, d-don't, d-don′t know
That you don′t know, that you don't know
That you don′t, d-don't, d-don′t, d-don't know
That you don′t know, that you don't know

If I, if I, if I, if I keep trying
T-t-t-t-t-t-trying
If I, if I, if I, if I keep trying
T-t-t-t-t-t-trying

(Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)
