[Verse 1] We took the boat out past the city lights Said we'd be home before the end of the night You had your jacket, I had your cigarettes Neither of us knew what we were getting into yet Now the coastline's just a blur behind the rain And every conversation circles back again You say we're fine, I say we're almost there But I can't see the place we used to swear was ours [Pre-Chorus] The water's getting deeper every day We keep pretending we can find our way But when I look around, there's nothing left to use To tell me where we started, where we lose [Chorus] I don't think we're coming back to shore Can't remember what we came out here for We've been chasing lights that disappear Calling it hope just to keep you near And I still reach for you when the waves get rough Like holding on could ever be enough We're still afloat, but I don't know anymore I don't think we're coming back to shore [Verse 2] Remember when the land was all we knew? When every little thing felt possible with you? Now we talk in circles till the sky turns grey Then watch another piece of us drift away I keep looking for a landmark in the blue Some familiar shape to lead me back to you But even your reflection looks so far Like I forgot how close we used to are [Pre-Chorus] The current pulls us somewhere we can't name We're both still here, but nothing feels the same And every time we say we'll turn around The tide comes in and swallows up the sound [Chorus] I don't think we're coming back to shore Can't remember what we came out here for We've been chasing lights that disappear Calling it hope just to keep you near And I still reach for you when the waves get rough Like holding on could ever be enough We're still afloat, but I don't know anymore I don't think we're coming back to shore [Bridge] I'm not saying there's no land ahead Or that every word between us is dead I just can't promise what I can't see Or keep pretending this is where we're meant to be [Final Chorus] I don't think we're coming back to shore Not the way we knew it anymore Maybe there's a place beyond this blue But I can't keep calling every wave a clue And I still reach for you when the night gets cold Still find your hand like a habit I hold We're still afloat, but the map's worn through And I don't know where the water leads us to
