Saltwater Gospel - Eli Young Band

Saltwater in the afternoon So scared of seeing you Saltwater at the end of spray So tired of hiding me Come to the ocean Even when you're broken Sunrise when you call my name Oh I though you had something to say When the tide wash me in You and I no longer remain Unrelentingly I've waited for you Come to the ocean Even when you're broken Come to the water Let it wash you over Come to the ocean Even when you're broken Come to the water Now that we are older

Talking with myself in a land-locked parking lot Cough drop tipping from my mouth like a love shot My writer's block ink, oh, oh, oh Sick of all the small talk, tripping non-stop From the open-mouthed graves of the faux-hawk Cinderblock mall, my blood clot pen, oh, oh, oh Oh, maybe I could break clean Yeah, maybe I could break clean When I'm on your shore again I can feel the ocean I can feel your open arms That pure emotion I'm finally free again Like my own explosion When I'm on your shore again I can feel the ocean Saltwater running through my veins like a blind spot Like I got caught, saltwater like your teardrop With this saltwater heart, oh way oh Now it's an abstract thought, but I've been thinking non-stop 'Bout the fact that my body's made most out of raindrops With this saltwater heart, oh, oh, oh Oh, maybe I could wash clean Yeah, maybe I could believe When I'm on your shore again I can feel the ocean I can feel your open arms That pure emotion I'm finally free again Like my own explosion When I'm on your shore again I can feel the ocean Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh Oh, maybe I could wash clean Yeah, maybe I could wash clean All my land-locked dreams And maybe I could believe When I'm on your shore again I can feel the ocean I can feel your open arms That pure emotion I'm finally free again Like my own explosion When I'm on your shore again I can feel the ocean Yeah! Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh I can feel the ocean Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh Woah-oh-oh

I opened my eyes last night And saw you in the low light Walking down by the bay On the shore Staring up at the stars That aren't there anymore I was feeling the night grow old And you were looking so cold Like an introvert I drew my over-shirt Around my arms and began To shiver violently before You happened to look And see the tunnels all around me Running into the dark Underground All the subways around Create a great sound To my motion fatigue Farewell With your ear to a seashell You can hear the waves In underwater caves As if you actually were inside a saltwater room Time together isn't ever quite enough When you and I are alone I've never felt so at home What will it take to make or break this hint of love? Only time, only time Can you believe that the crew has gone And they wouldn't let me sign on? All my islands have sunk in the deep And I can hardly relax Or even oversleep But I feel warm with your hand in mine When we walk along the shoreline I guess we'll never know Why sparrows love the snow We'll turn off all of the lights and set this ballroom aglow (So tell me darling do you wish we'd fall in love?) (Yeah all the time) (All the time) Time together isn't ever quite enough When you and I are alone I've never felt so at home What will it take to make or break this hint of love? Only time, only time When we're apart whatever are you thinking of? If this is what I call home why does it feel so alone? So tell me darling, do you wish we'd fall in love? All the time, all the time Time together isn't ever quite enough When we're apart whatever are you thinking of? What will it take to make or break this hint of love? So tell me darling do you wish we'd fall in love? All the time Oh, all the time

She's in my skin and bones She's grace and glory She's a back road home She's a long story Yeah the one goodbye that I can't even imagine She's a well thought out plan and I don't know how it happened She's in my skin and bones She's in my skin and bones Now if life is just an old car And love is just the wheels that keep it rollin' Every engine needs a spark, yeah And she's the fire that's kept me going She's in my skin and bones She's grace and glory She's a back road home She's a long story Yeah the one goodbye that I can't even imagine She's a well thought out plan and I don't know how it happened She's in my skin and bones She's in my skin and bones Yeah if a fight is like a shot of whiskey Then forgiveness is a pill I'll be takin' in the morning She'll smile and then she'll kiss me, yeah Saying baby you can't win and you know it She's in my skin and bones She's grace and glory She's a back road home She's a long story She's the one goodbye that I can't even imagine She's a well thought out plan and I don't know how it happened She's in my skin and bones She's in my skin and bones In my heart, in my head, in my hands, in my bed She is a drug running through my blood She's in my skin and bones She's in my skin and bones
