Lyrics
RIPPLES
Verse #1
You were my watercolor
fading in the rain
I tried to hold your picture
inside the frame
but you just ran rivers
right through my hands
Was our love an hour glass
that's losing sand?
CHORUS
When you said you loved me
what did you mean?
Were your words just stones
tossed into the stream?
No matter what you meant to say
I'll wait right here
I'll wait for your ripples on my shore
Verse #2
Your tail lights still burn
embers in my mind
I remember when you turned
into the night
Just like that you left my life
a blink in the night
Like two fingers pressing tight
out went my light
CHORUS
When you said you loved me
what did you mean?
Were your words just stones
tossed into the stream?
No matter what you meant to say
I'll wait right here
I'll wait for your ripples on my shore
I'll wait for your ripples on my shore
Verse #3
A half set table
in a half lit room
I'm half a man
since I'm without you
The candles flicker, trying to be
the light that?s left my life
but all that I can think of are
ripples in the night
CHORUS
When you said you loved me
what did you mean?
Were your words just stones
tossed into the stream?
No matter what you meant to say
I'll wait right here
I'll wait for your ripples on my shore
I'll wait for your ripples on my shore
I'll wait for your ripples on my shore
