Outset Island

there once was a girl
I felt i'd known forever
her name in every song
her smile is every summer
across the continent
we'd go on adventure
but we are now apart
but I still picture us
living in the same house
somewhere by the sea
it wouldn't have to be much
a place for her and me
yeah that'd be everything that we'd ever need
and when the night winds beat upon our house
the windows shake and our power goes out
but isn't it amazing?
it's her and me
me and her
her and me
summertime is gone
i go about my business
i would give anything
to hold her hand just one more time
I'm scared that I won't ever change
I think about her everyday
i can't let go i can't go on
I'm not ok at all
she was by my side
when I first saw the ocean
1000 miles wide
we both dipped our toes in
sat there for awhile
until the sky turned red and orange
later the stars came out
there we sat in the sand
with her hand in my hand
chorus
I made ways to forget how it felt when we were alone
that that could never be real
