You Versus The Sea lyrics

Yes I swear bravery and strength go with her name, ooh
And she said all she had was the cross around her neck to keep her warm, ooh
I still remember how you tried hold these walls through perfect storms
Ohh, you lost so many homes
You said hold on everything will be okay
I`ve been confused, why can`t we just run away?

Was it hope that kept you alive through the years and
Should I even call it living?

I`ve been dreaming that I found you staying in the sea
Then you told me that`s where you`ve been
You said the water`s cold but still warmer than your skin
I tried to help you but the closer I got, the further you are to me...away

Was it hope that kept you alive through the years and
Should I even call it living?
