Lyrics

You met me down by the wharf We found the place that was covered in sea glass All of the pelicans swarm Diving for fish that are hiding in sea grass We walked for a while Echoed a mile Passing the time With a shared flask Off went the sun You've got to head on I never thought time would pass this fast I make it a point to head south Just like a bird I migrate in the winter I walk through the door and look down Your hands on mine they appear to be older We talk for a while Into the night Chasing the clock As we look back The shadows are long You're asleep on my arm I never thought time would pass this fast You on the edge of the boat Loosening lines to prepare for the weather Follow the path of the storm The wind makes me feel as light as a feather I'm overwhelmed We're gripping the helm You say that the worst of it's past The light up ahead Where the water turns flat I never thought time would pass this fast Let's watch the pelicans float Down by the wharf laying out in the sun
