A4/E D4/G
I drove up to the city at night and found the place
A4/E
Where you grew up and then where you stayed
D4/G
And we walked around and stayed up late
A4/E
under city lights,I spent the night
D4/G
next to you in the house where you grew up
A4/E
Next to you I miraculously woke up
D4
In your parents' house I laid in bed with you
A4/E D4/G
I went back to feel alone there
A4/E D4/G
I went back to wipe it clean
A4/E D4/G
I took the lights and radio towers out of my dreams
A4/E D4/G
And we went all the way up to the small town where I'm from
A4/E
With foggy air and the wind and the mountain top
D4/G
And we clung to rocks and looked off
A4/E
and you held my hand ,You almost got to start feeling me
D4/G
I finally felt like I was breathing free
A4/E D4/G
Under swaying trees we fell asleep and we had the same dream
A4/E
The stars were bright, we dream the same every night
D4/G
On my island home I spent some time with you
A4/E D4/G
I went back to feel alone there
A4/E D4/G
I went back there by myself
A4/E D4/G
I gave up on everything that we'd felt
A4/E D4/G
We found a precious place in the sand right out in the wind
A4/E
And we laid under a blanket and heard the furious sound
D4/G
The roar of waves, the pounding surf, two bodies on the earth
A4/E D4/G
It was intense just getting to be there next to you
A4/E D4/G
And you trying to get me then, and I was happy to let you in
A4/E D4/G
I went back and wished I hadn't
A4/E D4/G
I went back and felt regret
A4/E D4/G A4/E D4/G
I went to the beach and I stared west
A4/E D4/G
Every night when the sun went down in the town where we lived
A4/E
The empty streets were lit up by reflected light
D4/G
from a distant sun. Bouncing off a glowing ball of rock
A4/E D4/G
and we just laid on the roof And watched
A4/E D4/G
the moon, the moon, the blue light of the moon. We didn't talk
A4/E
and silently we both felt powerful
D4/G
And, like the moon, my chest was full
A4/E D4/G
'cause we both knew We're just floating in space over molten rock
A4/E
And we felt safe and we discovered that our skin is soft
D4/G
There's nothing left except certain death
A4/E D4/G
And that was comforting at night out under the moon
A4/E D4/G
I went out last night to forget that
A4/E D4/G
I went out and stared it down
A4/E D4/G
But the moon just stared back at me
A4/E D4/G A4/E
And in it's light I saw my two feet on the ground
