Ed Sheeran – Salt Water Lyrics
Verse 1
There's still so far to go and I can't feel my toes
When the rain soaks through the heels and slips to the sole
Yeah, the blades are two feet tall
I wade in green, I'm moving forward, to where? God only knows
Feel the wind's harsh refrain like the clouds gripped my face
Saying, “It's alright to run from all this pain”
Oh, and when it's time to go with one last breath that's in my lungs
I'll scream, “It's all for love,” I'll scream, “It's all for love”
Chorus
Come and kiss me, salt water
Oh, finally, I feel, at three or four degrees
I'm free in salt water
Embrace the deep and leave everything
It was just a dream
Verse 2
I can see it up ahead where the sky meets the ground
And after that, there's only moving grey
I am filled up with regret
With things I did or never said, just leave that, well, alone
Chorus
And come kiss me, salt water
Oh, finally, I feel, at three or four degrees
I'm free in salt water
Embrace the deep and leave everything
It was just a dream
Post-Chorus
(Ah-ah)
It was just a dream
It was just a dream
(Ah-ah)
It was just a dream
Was it just a dream?
Bridge
Now, I'm standing on the edge, gazing into hell
Or is it somethin' else? I just can't tell
When there's nothin' left, I close my eyes and take one step
And say, “Well, here it goes,” I say, “Well, here it goes”
Chorus
Come and kiss me, salt water
Oh, finally, I feel, at three or four degrees
I'm free in salt water
Embrace the deep and leave everything
It was just a dream
