Swallowed in the Sea

You cut me down a tree and brought it back to me And that's what made me see where I was going wrong You put me on a shelf and kept me for yourself I can only blame myself, you can only blame me

And I could write a song a hundred miles long Well, that's where I belong and you belong with me And I could write it down or spread it all around Get lost and then get found or swallowed in the sea

You put me on the line and hung me out to dry And darling that's when I decided to go see you You cut me down to size and opened up my eyes Made me realize what I could not see

And I could write a book The one they'll say that shook the world and then it took It took it back from me And I could write it down or spread it all around Get lost and then get found And you'll come back to me Not swallowed in the sea

(Ooh, ah) (Ooh, ah-ah-ah)

Well, I could write a song a hundred miles long Well, that's where I belong and you belong with me The streets you're walking on, a thousand houses long Well, that's where I belong and you belong with me

Oh, what good is it to live with nothing left to give Forget but not forgive, not loving all you see All the streets you're walking on, a thousand houses long Well that's where I belong and you belong with me Not swallowed in the sea

You belong with me Not swallowed in the sea Yeah, you belong with me Not swallowed in the sea
