You led me to the water's edge
Wasn't hard to get me to drink
And on the sand we made our bet
I never took the time to think

I wasn't looking for someone to rely on
Not somebody so free that they would fly on
Like an illusion in my head
Was over before I could blink

And like a distant cloud
It's all so hazy now
And I just can't stop coming down, uh

I'm having a hard time letting go
I wish I could call to let you know
But I can see you and me
And I just can't let it be
I'm having a hard time letting go
So take me back to the sea
Take me back to the sea

Got your mirage stuck in my way
I can't get the sound to stop
Singing every single day
Whether you wanna hear it or not

Well you're just a vision in the water
Never lost ya but I'm gonna find ya
Can't be God of your embrace
Don't know what kinda magic you got
I just can't stop coming down

I'm having a hard time letting go
I wish I could call to let you know
But I can see you and me
And I just can't let it be
I'm having a hard letting go
So take me back to the sea
Take me back to the sea

I wasn't looking for someone to rely on
Not somebody so free that they would fly on
Well you're just a vision in the water
Never lost ya but I'm gonna find ya

But I just can't stop coming down oh
I'm havin' a hard time letting go
I wish I could call to let you know
But I can see you and me
And I just can't let it be
I'm having a hard time letting go

Ooh mama, I'm having a hard time letting go
No mama, I wish I could call to let you know
I could see you and me
And I just can't let it be
I'm having a hard time letting go
So take me back to the sea
Well take me back to the sea then
Well just let me be there, yeah
And ride with me
Through the trees
To the sea
Take me back to the sea
