Tethered

Lyrics

[Verse 1] We were married by the ocean We were tethered by the sea We tied string around our fingers To remember our ideals I'll be brave when you are frightened You'll be strong when I am weak in the knees I'll be calm when you have had enough of these rushing waves You'll be the oxygen I need [Chorus] We'll take turns to untangle the knots Though our hands may be tied It's all a part of the plot Cat's cradle etiquette, we oblige As we learn to enlace for the rest of our lives [Verse 2] You'll be balance when I waver I'll be warmth when you are shivering cold You'll be patience when I've had enough of this waiting game I'll be the anchor cast below [Chorus] We'll take turns to untangle the knots Though our hands may be tied It's all a part of the plot Cat's cradle etiquette, we oblige As we learn to enlace for the rest of our lives
