Ceylon Sailor - cambridge streets Lyrics

It was the longest day
As we stared below the ground
But we cast our cares away
Embraced the sparks that careened around -
Fragile grasses swayed and they beckoned in the night
While the gulls they brayed they didn't care about you and I

And you were right to say that I would be just fine
And you were right to say that we were off from the start

Lovely, frayed
As your thoughts were all at war
So we ran all day, to avoid the words
Dangling offshore

And you were right to say that I would be just fine
And you were right to say that we were off from the start

Can the sky stay up for a while
A thousand pieces slipping through my closed hands to the ground

You said I'd never be enough for you to love
So the credits paused the story where we could always float above

And you were right to say that I would be just fine
And you were right to say that we were off from the start
And you were right to say that I don't wanna be just fine
And you were right to say that we were off
We were off, until now
