Next of Kin

We walked along the rocks for nearly an hour
 I caught the way you looked at me in the sunlight
 You took something before you went in the shower
 To help suppress the things that make you feel uptight
 If I'd known you couldn't swim
 We would never have gone in
 I left my love in the river
 The only one who sees
 I lost his hand in the current
 It was the life I wanted and I hoped for
 And now I am left sifting through the weeds
 The sun so hot, I saw his skin through his t-shirt
 The grass so tall, we knew we wouldn't be found
 We climbed into the stream, sure no one would be hurt
 And in no time at all, there wasn't a sound
 If I'd known you couldn't swim
 We would never have gone in
 I left my love in the river
 The only one who sees
 I lost his hand in the current
 It was the life I wanted and I hoped for
 And now I am left sifting through the weeds

 No color to his skin

 No color to his skin
 I left my love in the river
 The only one I see
 I left his hand in the current
 And now I am left looking through the trees
