You shouldn't count the rings before you dip your toe in the water
Who knows you may like the way I feel
But for now I can be calm

I can behave
I can be tamed
Just don't blame me for what came before


it's the simple things that you don't want to give back, no
once they take 'em you won't ever get 'em back so

careful now you better never let 'em go
not this time


The many faces that you wear when all the world is blooming
Each one falls as you get closer to me
So I see you look like me

You look like everything is going to be all right
From now on


I see you stark
And I see you blurry
Calm and in a hurry


I see you flat
And 3 dimensional

I see you drowning in the tide
