26 Miles Lyrics

Twenty six miles to my left
And not a single man
There's not much in front of me
Below are feet and sand.

So I turn and I sit and stare
In my lap this pen and pad
I watch the water rise and fall
Recede and then advance.

I don't know which way I'll go
First the voice inside me says okay
I don't know which way I'll go
Then the voice inside me says no way.

The water's warmer than it looks
Not much cooler than the air
My ankles say to walk out further
But my head just wants to stare.

So I sit myself down in the spot
Where I've been for the last hourSean Watkins - 26 Miles - http://motolyrics.com/sean-watkins/26-miles-lyrics.html
And wait for the sun to break the clouds
Was I smart or like a coward?

I don't know which way she'll go
First the voice inside me says away
I don't know which way she'll go
Then the voice inside me says she'll stay.

I wanted to walk in waist deep
And fall blindly on my back
Let white and green surround my body
Three feet above the sand.

But I laid back and fell asleep
Woke up staring at the sun
I don't know if I will today
But so far it has been fun

I don't know which way I'll go
First the voice inside me says okay
I don't know which way she'll go
Then the voice inside me says to wait...
