Eleven - Nerina Pallot

We went down to the water

We went to the sea that day

We went down, it was incredible

It took my breath away

I know

I get obsessed, I get obsessed with little things

I don’t know why, I don’t know why but I do

I get upset, I get upset with everything

I’m only breathing in and breathing out for you, for you, for you

We went down to the water

We went to the sea that day

We went down, it was incredible

It took my breath away

I know that

We don’t know much, we don’t much about anything

Not like those minds that shine on the 40-foot

You said to me, «I hope he’s like those boys down there

Happy just living with a universe of words

Happy just living with a universe of words, of words, of words»

We went down to the water

We went to the sea that day

We went down, it was incredible

It took my breath away

I know

I got eleven kinds of clouds to shroud and comfort me

Eleven kinds of loneliness to go floating out to sea

Eleven ways to lose yourself, unseen and unavowed

I’ve got eleven kinds of joy for me and me now

We went down to the water

We went to the sea that day

We went down, it was incredible

It took my breath away, it felt like

It took my breath away

It took my breath away
