4 + 8 bars
Alone at sea that sais a lot
All the time to sit and ponder
On what you have and haven’t got
Wondering what you have no longer
Talking a little amongst myself to keep conversation light
Staring right in to this big bright eye
This time a day it ain’t that pride
You gotta work with what you got
So give me red and purple wonder
And I give it my best shot
Wondering ‘bout the things down under
But the purple and the pink
Make you feel, make you think
Of the beauty of the tide
Up and down in day and night
Over salt you can not drink
Over thoughts you can’t unmake(?)
Still I won’t give up the fight
‘Cause I can’t keep my peace
I can’t miss, what’s never meant to keep
I can’t miss, what’s never meant to keep
I can’t miss, what’s never meant to keep
I can’t miss, I can’t miss, keep
I can’t miss, what’s never meant to keep
I can’t miss, what’s never meant to keep
I can’t miss, what’s never meant to keep
I can’t miss, I can’t miss, no
4 bars
See I’m a fool to fight the tide
This current is so much stronger
And I’m a fool to fight the night
So fill my eyes and ease my hunger
Talking a little amongst myself to clear away the fear at night
Stearing right in to the big bright eye
This time a day it ain’t that pride
I gotta clear my head of thought
So give me red and purple wonder
And I give it my best shot
Waste can take and pull me under
But the purple and the pink
Make you feel, make you think
Of the beauty of the night
And how the dark can take the light
All these thoughts you can not think
All the thoughts that ’re forced to sink
Still I won’t give up the fight
‘Cause I can’t keep my peace
I can’t miss, what’s never meant to keep
I can’t miss, what’s never meant to keep
I can’t miss, what’s never meant to keep
I can’t miss, I can’t miss, keep
I can’t miss, what’s never meant to keep
I can’t miss, what’s never meant to keep
I can’t miss, what’s never meant to keep
I can’t miss, I can’t miss, no
11 bars break down
16 bars solo
4x
I can’t miss, what’s never meant to keep
I can’t miss, what’s never meant to keep
I can’t miss, what’s never meant to keep
I can’t miss, I can’t miss, keep
1x without band
I can’t miss, what’s never meant to keep
I can’t miss, what’s never meant to keep
I can’t miss, what’s never meant to keep
I can’t miss, I can’t miss
