liquid sunshine

I still remember the taste Of the sweet water misting That look on your face When you told me I was missing You saw a future in my eyes The one you took from me And I stood misty-eyed As I left you behind And now the waves crash down on me Pool in my hands and fall to my feet I called you liquid sunshine 'Cause even on my brightest days I felt your cold rain on me And your tears left their stains Now salt builds on my eyes And dirt on my fingers I hardly recognize The person in my mirrors And you've moved away You took a piece of me with you Still, I celebrate Not knowing your name And now the waves crash down on me Pool in my hands and fall to my feet I called you liquid sunshine 'Cause even on my brightest days I felt your cold rain on me And your tears left their stains It's been four years Three left to go Then you'll be gone And I'll start to grow And let the waves crash down on me Catch water in my hands and scream I'm free I'll call you liquid sunshine 'Cause even when it's raining It's still warm outside And I'm still living
