I sat beside the inland sea I watched you drift away from me I never learned to swim, you see So i sat beside the inland sea While you drifted away I watched you silhouette the sun While all my dreams had come undone I never had a prayer, not one So watched you silhouette the sun You can tell lies Because you can You drift away While i'm stuck on dry land Swallowed up I raced along the inland sea I stared at where you used to be We were always thick as thieves, weren't we? So i raced along the inland sea
