lyrics

We met so long ago
An ocean of time away
And though the tide it rolls out
A couple dozen times a day
It never pulled us in
Just tickled at our skin
Effortlessly devoted
And like a barnacle I cling
To a good thing--

Well I never planned
Two years of cross-the-border one-night stands
But it couldn't be done
With just anyone

And when the winters come
And all the waters freeze
Our electric body heat will
Dissolve whatever comes between
So keep on holding tight
The way you always do
I promise I won't bite
I'm not a natural predator
Like you

Well I always said
All long-distance relations wind up dead
But it couldn't be done
With just anyone

I let the water run!
I threw my caution off a cliff!
I'm having so much fun
You always catch my drift

Well I never planned
Two years of cross-the-border one-night stands
But it couldn't be done
With just anyone
