Waterwings Lyrics & Chords By The Scourge Of The Sea

I dove in without any water wings
To save something I thought was worth saving
I saw you tied to a rock in the sand
I tried to be gentle and held out my hand
But you said, "It's no use, it's been so long
I've tried out weapons, I've tried out my songs
In love, there's no love that can't be denied
I only trust people after they've died"
I thought I knew what you needed to hear
A sad song, a new film, a pitcher of beer
I came to bring back the red blood of youth
And ended up trapped in a telephone booth
When I touched the rock, it turned into a dove
Floated to surface and vanished above
I turned to look at you, pale from the shock
You turned me into a rock
