She says she's fine
She is the kindest liar
She says I'm mine
And I should keep my fire
But she's cold
And she's out there on her own

She stretched her limbs
So she could touch the weather
Into the clouds
So she might disappear
I watched her float
On the bed like a paper boat
Felt her sink
Her thoughts the spill of ink

If I held you closer than I'm supposed to
When I leave
How much of you do I take with me
I'd wait here longer
There's nothing wrong
It's just the morning creeps
And still you're nowhere near to sleep
While I have slipped into a dream
I'm halfway across the sea
On a ship that you helped build for me
