We're all living just to find the latest loss
So cut your anchor loose and swim your way across
And when the day gives way to dusk and the circle closes 'round
Fold your hands across my heart and hold me down

It was around this time of year when we first met
You were my age and I didn't know it yet
But you'd be there for every time I lost my step
In a world that spun too fast under my legs

I've seen pictures of you then
Like the patron saint of everything I lack
And I know I've kept you up more nights than I could care to guess
But somehow you never thought to love me less

We're all living just to find the latest loss
So cut your anchor loose and swim your way across
And when the day gives way to dusk and the circle closes 'round

Fold your hands across my heart and hold me down

I think this year I've lost more than I've found
It spun me 'round and knocked me down and dragged me out
But no matter how I find myself falling in around you've been my sore eyes and solid ground

We're all living just to find the latest loss
So cut your anchor loose and swim your way across
And when the day gives way to dusk and the circle closes 'round
Fold your hands across my heart and hold me down
Fold your hands across my heart and hold me down

We're all living just to find the latest loss
So cut your anchor loose and swim your way across
And when the day gives way to dusk and the circle closes 'round
Fold your hands across my heart and hold me down
