Swallowed In The Sea

You cut me down a tree and brought it back to me
And that's what made me see where I was going wrong.
You put me on a shelf and kept me for yourself,
I can only blame myself, you can only blame me.

And I could write a song a hundred miles long,
Well that's where I belong and you belong with me.
And I could write it down or spread it all around,
Get lost and then get found or swallowed in the sea

You put me on a line and hung me out to dry,
Darling, that's when I decide to go see you
You cut me down to size and opened up my eyes
Made me realize what I could not see.

And I could write a book, the one they'll say that shook the world
And then it took, it took it back from me
And I could write it down or spread it all around,
Get lost and then get found and you'll come back to me
Not swallowed in the sea.

And I could write a song a hundred miles long,
Well, that's where I belong and you belong with me.
The streets you’re walking on, a thousand houses long
Well, that's where I belong and you belong with me.
Oh, what good is it to live with nothing left to give
Forget but not forgive, not loving all you see.
Oh, the streets you’re walking on a thousand houses long
Well, that's where I belong and you belong with me
Not swallowed in the sea.

You belong with me, not swallowed in the sea
Yeah, you belong with me
Not swallowed in the sea.
