Ice has formed and there's snow between the tracks
And I have seen the surface tear and I can't look back
And cool low sun has blinded you for days
From horizon to horizon, can I dream this all away

But over the water, over the water
Over the sea

There's you shining bright in a sea of fools
Oh I can sing you out of this, can shake your mermaid blues
Come with me, for alone I fear the tide
It's calling me and dragging me and I think it's time

But over the water, over the water
Over the sea

Shape your mouth to fit these words of war
I see the arrows falling backwards, burning for a cause
I'll swim with you until my lungs give out
Oh I can raise you from the deep or drown with you in doubt

But over the water, over the water
Over the water with you
