[Verse 1]
Frantic breakup, no goodbyes
I regret I left that night
We went back to being close
When her dad was diagnosed

[Verse 2]
Without notice, she flew back (She flew back)
Though only to see her dad
Tried explaining to her boss
Said he had to lay her off

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
She called, I said "Hi", her brother drove
Left her drinking, lost control
Salty rivers, barely dry
The next month her father died

[Bridge]
Father died (Ooh, ooh)
Father died (Oh, oh, father died, ooh, ooh)

[Verse 4]
Your life is an open sea
Solid ground is you and me
I will hold you when the tide
Pulls you under, everytime
[Outro]
Everytime (Ooh, ooh)
Everytime (Everytime)
Everytime (Everytime, ooh)

[Instrumental Outro]
