I hadn't turned around since the wind died
Stay the course til yer tired of the old tide
I could never decide how to slide along
Until I heard you singing out a song
Look at you you're skating up the avenue
Cutting out all the words that you never knew
I was struck by the sight of the downside
When I heard you slipping outta time
Speaking of the brightest light
I don't mind the sight alright
Yer watertight, don't be polite
I don't mind the sight alright
Stretching out in the light of the afterglow
Take a minute to slow down yer vertigo
You were tied up, exposed to a warm breeze
Suddenly yer rattling the trees
I found your note on the back of the envelope
I taught myself all the knots on a length of rope
You could never disguise how you energize
Once you wrapped up the bow on yer surprise
Speaking of the brightest light
I don't mind the sight alright
Yer watertight, don't be polite
I don't mind the sight alright
Gazing over the sprawl at the sunrise
There's a look in your eyes meant to advertise
That there's plenty of time to take a slow dive
Spin the patterns that make you feel alive
Speaking of the brightest light
I don't mind the sight alright
Yer watertight, don't be polite
I don't mind the sight alright
