You used to be scared of the water, you're safe by the side of your father Your sense of the world lay in your little home by the harbor You've always felt small in the city, you think that'll last for you And all of your old clothes are still in the hall of my building You never asked why, oh you never asked why If I was putting things on, if I was drinking too much of that red wine Oh you'd put yourself in, and accept every sin And if I'd close myself shut, you'd find your way We camped out our souls to the summer, we racked out our bones to the thunder We watched every sunset, until we got sick of each other You've always said fall was your season, that everyone's here for a reason I stared at your packed bags, and asked what the hell you mean You never asked why, oh you never asked why If I was putting things on, if I was drinking too much of that red wine Oh you'd put yourself in, and accept every sin And if I'd close myself shut, you'd find your way It only feels real after raining, and hearts only heal after breaking I stare at the tree line, and notice the leaves aren't changing And does the wind blow in Cape Elizabeth, constant and cold How do we live with this, love was a deadline Spend the rest of my life fucking missing it You never asked once, oh you never asked why If I was putting things on, if I was drinking too much of that red wine Oh you'd put yourself in, and accept every sin And if I'd close myself shut, you'd find your way
