Lyrics
Splash up on the sand and sink into me like a lotion
Do it again and again, cause I?m the beach and you?re the wave
It?s how you roll up on that shore that sets my body in motion
But your love is a flood, and I?ve realized
It?s something I can?t contain
You?re pouring down
All over me
I want you so
Foolishly
Damn the Highwaters
Damn the Highwaters again
It?s like I?m wearing jeans in a heatwave, but I keep putting you on
Stylish self-absorbed wrinkle-free crooked seams
Now it?s time I put your love on the line and let it dry out in the sun
It?s gonna shrink so much, it ain?t long enough
To fit anyone
You?re pouring down
All over me
I want you so
Foolishly
Damn the Highwaters
Damn the Highwaters again
