You Brought Me Up |
| You brought me up and out of the water |
| You brought me up to forget |
| I had ever been, I could ever breathe |
| In the water under your heart |
| I darkened your door and your days you said |
| You couldn’t sleep the night |
| With the sound of the sea hard on my heels |
| Climbing the stairs to your bed |
| (Chorus:) |
| You promised me gloves from the skins of the fishes |
| The smile of the dolphin for a ring in my hands |
| But you left me with nothing but a mouthful of air |
| And promises wide as the ocean |
| You left me down for once and for all |
| You left me out in the open |
| Under mackerel skies, high and dry |
| And out of the reach of our sea |
| Way out of reach and out of my depth |
| I wear your love like a skin |
| That hurts when anyone touches me |
| Where you left me down |
| For once and for all |
| Way out of reach of our sea |
| (Chorus / repeat first verse) |
