Hand in hand The flowers understand That we're fine, you and I
Hands are tied I don't mind I'll make you be okay
* But recently, everyone says they are seeing less of me
I could do better if I had energy Be like I used to be
And frequently, I picture myself walking straight into the sea
Laughing as the waves come rolling to my knees What a place to be
Side by side You keep me safe from their static getting through
Please be fine It's too late now To go leave You behind
( * )
And it's a lovely day for swimming
Pretend I didn't see the red flags that said don't go
'Cause if the storm out there's beginning
I'll find it for myself And not 'cause someone told me so
( * )
