And with the smile like an ocean wave, you catapult around the sun To meet me at the other side to tell me that you found it fun Swimming in the uv rays you shouted like the sound of thunder Booming through my stupid shades and shook all of the ground undone
I slipped into your beauty like a mudslide And on my search I, found nothing but upsides Your arms extend like branches and whenever we touch I feel the bark begin to soften up at all my sappy punch lines Maybe that's the reason
You're my earth You're the planet You're the grass The wind and tides
And now that you're gone I feel so out of place And now that you're gone I'm just drifting through space And now that you're gone I feel so out of place And now that you're gone I'm just drifting through space
And when we split up like pangea, I was hoping that we could reform A land bridge between our separate pieces of the earth before Our disconnect began to breed a species that would hurt much more Than carnivores, herbivores, recklessness or urban swarm
Or maybe I could wash up on a certain shore smiling Past the long night of drinking in the lights above the island Watching lightning flash every time you open up your eyelids Gentle smirks exploding like a fire in the sky
Till you scared away the forest creatures sleeping in the trees And they begin to huddle next to me weeping in the leaves See I've seen you change the temperature, increasing the degrees Till the warmth was just enough to let them nestling in peace
I never thought there'd be a problem that we couldn't solve When you control the weathers climate, and the sea levels and all But I suppose that when an earthquake splits the crust among the faults I shouldn't act as if the damage wouldn't break up those involved
You were my earth You were the planet You were the grass The wind and tides
And now that you're gone I feel so out of place And now that you're gone I'm just drifting through space And now that you're gone I feel so out of place And now that you're gone I'm just drifting through space
