Waterline Lyrics - Singles - Dog's Eye View

Well I'm walking with my father's ghost 

And he's talking to me 

He says "I'm sorry it's so hard to be free" 

He says "I knew you when you were so young 

And you will never know me 

Except for pictures that you might find from 

When you were three or four or five" 

Down at the waterline 

I'm at the waterline tonight 

At the waterline 

At the waterline tonight 

Now I'm talking with my sister 

Who says she knows you well 

She says she hears you in her hallway at night 

And sometimes she can smell you 

But me, I have to make you up 

From the smallest clues I can find 

Me, I have to dig you up 

From the corners of my mind 

We're at the waterline 

At the waterline tonight 

We're at the waterline 

At the waterline tonight 

I built this boat for you, my friend 

And you're not here to get in 

I'm wondering should I let it go 

And see if I can swim 

Yeah, I'm standing with this boat I built 

With water at my knees 

I thought that I might find you here 

But it looks like it's just me 

Here at the waterline 

At the waterline tonight 

At the waterline 

The waterline tonight 

I'm walking with my father's ghost 

He's talking to me 

He says "I'm sorry"
