lyrics
Helpless was the way I felt
Things I didn’t know couldn’t help
Things I didn’t know couldn’t tell me
I was standing here for hours
Think I’ll sit down for a while
Missed all the crying and the flowers
My eyes will rest upon the tide
In my head I will go back there
And I feel cold and I feel scared
And all the dark cloud silver lining is
Thank God the boy wasn’t there
No I have not been sleeping
In my dreams I live the day
No I have not been just weeping
I’m been sobbing with my hands upon my face
I still can’t believe it
How fast it all goes down
Now I’m standing here recieving
For the man at with which I almost drowned
Helpless was the way I felt
Things I didn’t know and couldn’t help
Reckless was the way I felt
Things I didn’t know put me through hell
Now a trying time ahead of me
Got to pick it all back up
Make a strong face for my family
And say enough is enough
But in my head I will go back there
And I feel cold and I feel scared
And I’ll be reaching for a long arm
And say a little pray
I’ll say a little prayer
The ocean is so big and the boats are so small
The ocean is so big, never used to bother me at all
Things I didn’t know couldn’t help
Things I didn’t know couldn’t tell me
I was standing here for hours
Think I’ll sit down for a while
Missed all the crying and the flowers
My eyes will rest upon the tide
In my head I will go back there
And I feel cold and I feel scared
And all the dark cloud silver lining is
Thank God the boy wasn’t there
No I have not been sleeping
In my dreams I live the day
No I have not been just weeping
I’m been sobbing with my hands upon my face
I still can’t believe it
How fast it all goes down
Now I’m standing here recieving
For the man at with which I almost drowned
Helpless was the way I felt
Things I didn’t know and couldn’t help
Reckless was the way I felt
Things I didn’t know put me through hell
Now a trying time ahead of me
Got to pick it all back up
Make a strong face for my family
And say enough is enough
But in my head I will go back there
And I feel cold and I feel scared
And I’ll be reaching for a long arm
And say a little pray
I’ll say a little prayer
The ocean is so big and the boats are so small
The ocean is so big, never used to bother me at all
