Guts

I'm the mother of the night
 I'm the mother of the tide
 At this moment
 Oh please stay
 Don't walk away
 It's only the body that dies
 And you know it's only because of the night-time
 At this moment
 Watch what you say
 Just walk away
 And when I walked out to the beach I was aching inside my guts
 And when I held out my trembling hand
 You just took it in yours and said "trust me"
 And when the night is closing in I can almost taste your lust
 Said "it's better to be facing up than to die by a thousand cuts"
 And you know problems do arise
 And we just go on leading our separate lives
 Together forever?
 At least that's what they say
 Just walk away
 And when I walked out to the beach I was aching inside my guts
 And when I held out my trembling hand
 You just took it in yours and said "trust me"
 And when the night is closing in I can almost taste your lust
 Said "it's better to be facing up than to die by a thousand cuts"
 Oh baby! Tell me why
 Can't I just fall asleep
 I lie
 I just lie here, thinking, thinking about it
 I'll never, ever get over it
 Or so I thought
 I'll never, ever get over it
 Just gimme some more time
 Aw, just gimme some more time
 (Just gimme some more time)
 Aw, just gimme some more time
 (Holy water in my eyes)
 Holy water on my mind
 (When chlorine gets in my eyes)
 The chlorine it just makes me cry
 (Salty water in my eyes)
 Salty water in my eyes
 (Salty water in my eyes)
 Salty water in my eyes
 (Salty water in my eyes)
 It' just water in my eyes
 (Salty water in my eyes)
 It's only water in my eyes
 (Salty water in my eyes)
 It's just water in my eyes
 (Salty water in my eyes)
 Salty water in my eyes
 (Salty water in my eyes)
 Salty water in my eyes
