April's Atlas - Flipper Lyrics

Sandy beach, coral reef
Heart is free, siblings
There is stress when day depletes
But in this cove, family

I've sweat and bled, I'll push ahead
To new islands, new sunsets
But if I could have it my way
When you ask me I've always said

Let me sink into the water
Would rather be below than overhead
It's a little safer
Maybe I would rather sleep on an ocean bed
In the distance, there's a strong boat
An expedition to see how far she'll go
But there's nothing like the shallows
Nothing like, nothing like home

There's nothing like the shallows
Nothing like, nothing like

I'm on this voyage long
I still haven't seen what I left to see
40 days, 39 nights
I wonder if tonight will bring me some relief
I'm still alive deep inside
I'd do anything to bring you back to me
So let me sink into the water
Let it fill all the spaces still empty

Fill all of the spaces in me

Yeah I've been stumbling
But with you it's simple
You lift all the weight from my shoulders
There's nothing like the shallows
Nothing like, nothing like

Sandy beach, coral reef
Heart is free, siblings
When day depletes
But in those hours, family
