lyrics

You're not like anyone I've met before
The party was already winding down
But I knew as soon as you walked through the door
That your smile would make me want to stick around

Cause there's an ocean in your eyes
And I think I'd like to dive
And let the undertow take me away
And we don't have to decide
Til we see the morning light
But right here by my side I hope you'll stay

The brown glass bottle you hold in your hand
Is the same shade as the windows to your soul
And I sincerely hope you'll understand
That I had to come over and let you know

That there's an ocean in your eyes
And I think I'd like to dive
And let the undertow take me away
And we don't have to decide
Til we see the morning light
But right here by my side I hope you'll stay

So let's work backwards from our future plans
Of growing old together by the sea
Or we could live out on the desert sands
Anywhere with you is fine with me

Cause there's an ocean in your eyes
And I think I'd like to dive
And let the undertow take me away
And we don't have to decide
Til we see the morning light
But right here by my side I hope you'll stay

Yeah there's an ocean in your eyes
And I think I'd like to dive
And let the undertow take me away
And we don't have to decide
Til we see the morning light
But right here by my side I hope you'll stay
Oh right here by my side I hope you'll stay
Oh right here by my side I hope you'll stay
Yeah right here by my side I hope you'll stay
