I want to know everything
I want to see his tears
I want him to let me see everything
But he just fears
 
Fears that if we get too close
He won’t be able to say goodbye
He doesn't want to take that jump
He thinks the risks are too high
 
So he gets into his boat
And waves goodbye to me
As I’m drowning at the shore
 
Now I’m no longer drowning
But sailing out at sea
Happy and contented because I know
Someday there will be someone
Who will come sailing here for me
