Oh, when we stood When we stood tall Determined to conquer them all We turned the tables While they placed Bricks in the wall And oh, we'd got, We'd got so far Back from the times in the start When I was your savior, And you were the ground neath my feet Right then, The winter came Creeping up to all our Northern dreams So I grabbed the keys And we drove straight down To the seas ♪ Oh, and it took It took so long To learn all the words to their songs And soon all the smiles we had earned Were traded for frowns While on the way The way back to shore Where you'd spend your days keeping score I found a letter That you'd left Before you were gone And it said to me "The seasons have nothing to do With our lonesome feelings" Then I could see The cold, crooked winter Was me ♪ Once I was young Once I was free Once I was you And you were me Now I'm just a sailor And you're just Salt in the sea
