Ice has formed and there's snow between the tracks
I have seen the surface tear and I can't look back
A cool, low sun has blinded you for days from horizon to horizon
Can I dream this all away?

But over the water; over the sea

There's you, shining bright in a sea of fools
Oh, I can sing you out of this...
Can shake your mermaid's blues
Come with me for alone I fear the tide
It's calling me and dragging me and I think it's time

But over the water; over the sea

Shape your mouth to fit these words of war
I see the arrows falling backwards, burning for a cause
I'll swim with you until my lungs give out
Oh, I can raise you from the deep or drown with you in doubt
