I need you like morning
Like dimes in my pocket
I'll take you with you sunrise
I'll take you any old time
I need you like evening
Like the bill I owed last week
Like the sound of the city
Like sleep like time

There's no use for me now
I've figured it out
I'm a sailor ashore with no boat to sail out
Onto the world to see all the pearls and planets and things
The ocean doesn't sing without you
But oh how it does how it does

With you the edge of a mountain
That free falling feelin'
That hurt with the healin'
The way my name sounds coming from
Your lips is the best thing
I ever been called
I'm quietly enthralled the way you
Move me it's paralyzingly

There's no use for me now
I've figured it out
I'm a sailor ashore with no boat to sail out
Onto the world to see all the pearls and planets and things
What does anything mean without you
But oh what it does what it does

And then somebody knows
Somebody holds
Somebody wraps me up and folds me out
You try out all these things
Out from the deep I've never seen
Not sure of anything other then the way
You break me build me pour me out and fill me up 

Because without you without you
I'll slide and I'll tune
There's too much space in every room 
Without you no reason to dine when it's just plastic wine 
Without you now I've been to the tale of time 
Words hardly have use
But oh how they do how they do

There's no use for me now
I've figured it out
I'm a sailor ashore with no boat to sail out
Onto the world to see all the pearls and planets and things
What does anything mean without you
But oh what it does what it does
With you
