​shores

Lyrics

[Intro: Mantra] Yeah [Verse 1: Mantra] Knew I had to treat my heart with a certain respect, move circumspect From all the hurtin' I had come to expect Yet all the spectres I expected to see, on further inspection Were never there, the symptoms of a pessimistic head Testin' us, tryna measure what we meant 'Til eventually the burden of its pressure was immеnse I was treadin' carefully, sеcond guessin' every step Evidently unaware of the treasure in your chest That beautiful musical medial heartbeat kept If I'd a seen it sooner I'd a said it right there and then, love Whatever I had I woulda risked it for love 'Cause if anythin' was ever worth the risk, it was love Foolish folly it was floatin' on the tip of my tongue Didn't trust myself with it until it was done Now I sit at home, thinkin' of you alone Wishin' I took that risk and coulda let you know [Chorus: Chevalier] Waters were so deep Now the shores are at our feet If we test the water Will we jump in or keep the border In between us? The shore between us [Verse 2: Chevalier] Oh-oh-oh I've been down this road before I've been burdened and I swore I wouldn't take no risks no more 'Cause the cost is always greater And the mess ain't worth the cleanup But the grass is always greener Oh my pessimistic views Take control of me Oh, I wish that I could see There is beauty [?] [?] Yeah, my comfortability Is just to see beneath What if we jump in? Ooh Why don't we jump in? [Chorus: Chevalier] Hey Waters were so deep Now the shores are at our feet If we test the water Will we jump in or keep the border In between us? The shore between us [Bridge: Chevalier] If you're ready Take my hand and count to three, jump in with me There's no telling if its Right or wrong, then take the plunge with me If you're ready Take my hand and count to three, jump in with me There's no telling if its Right or wrong, then take the plunge with me [Verse 3: Mantra, Chevalier] Yeah Oh-oh I can almost shout from my island to yours (Ay) As tides conspire to unite our shores (Yeah) From the highest peak of the ocean (Oh) To its floors, I am yours, I am scared I am broken, I am flawed I am paired with the omens of my flaws Though as those most dynamic, titanic break at our feet And the giants of our two tides meet Our boats are not moored, and future is not assured Do we drop an anchor between us or watch it all wash ashore? All we know is that only love can stop the war That's a risk I guess we gotta take if we want it all
