Feel the wind in my hair and the smoke at my fingertips
Breathing just to get by is no real way to live
What if when the daybreak comes
She fades away with the rising sun?
Oh, why did I fall in love?
Feel the salt on my skin and the water start to drag me in
This ocean of mine is a treacherous place to swim
And as it starts to reach high tide
I hope you start to feel alive
Oh, why did I fall in love?
[Chorus]
Waves roll on to the waking light
Stars fade back into the night
It is there in the morning I
Can finally hear you sing
The farther away you seem to get from me,
The farther from being in love I seem to be
Oh, why did I fall in love?
And in the youthfulness of day
I feel you start to slip away
[Chorus x2]
Waves roll on to the waking light
Stars fade back into the night
It is there in the morning I
Can finally hear you sing
[Vocal and guitar outro]
