lyrics

I keep talking about you and I
As if we were something
But I know I was nothing to you
And you were everything to me
And I was skipping through the flowered fields
Of a dream

I think you were floating
Between your past and your future
And I rudely imposed my presence
And went along for the ride
Well, I'm sorry for the inconvenience
So I guess now I should swallow
My thorny pride

I was thirsty and I got what I thought
Was a refreshing drink
But looking back I see
It was nothing but saltwater
Saltwater
Saltwater
Saltwater

On a grander scale now
So we don't have to focus on you
I rely on the kindness of strangers
To fill the hole in my heart
And it works for a while
But then the pain is back again
And when I'm loving the one I'm with
I'm just thinking of the next

The next smile, the next embrace
The next time, the next place
It's not that I don't want that special one
I guess I'm just having so much fun
With my saltwater
Saltwater
Saltwater
Saltwater
