lyrics

I took a look around and stared out at the ocean
I pressed against the waves
I wanted something to seem like it was in focus
I wanted to feel brave

When I submerged I felt a rush of blood in motion
But I was not afraid
Then the summer, it was over
Nothing golden can stay

I resolved to move on
All it took was enough to feel like going under
Let the warmth of the sun hold me over

I realized too late that nobody would notice
I guess it's all the same

I resolved to move on
All it took was enough to feel like going under
Let the warmth of the sun hold me over
