felicity, won't you come back home?
been waiting by the shore
with the boat that i stole
looking out for your bright red hair
amidst the crowd for days now.

you said you'll meet me right here
where the waves kiss the land
our feet drowned in this sand
you told me you'd take my hand
we could leave it all behind.

felicity, have you forgotten me?
your face is still etched in my mind
the ring you gave me on my birthday
hanging around my neck
like a choker never letting me breathe.

i'm stranded in the same place
losing a piece of hope in my heart
every single passing day
people tell me to get going
they'd never know about you and i.

felicity, the boat is slowly covered in ivy
the only thing i could hear
are the last words you uttered
before you disappeared away
into the woods several nights ago.

seagulls soar past my head
you used to throw them bread crumbs
they miss you much as i do
when will you come back?
can you see the tears forming?

felicity, days turn into cold nights
i lose sleep and my eyes turn red
flowers bloom, trees grow, people change
but i remain the same
i'm still the one that you loved.

a storm brews up in my heart
the clouds cover the skies above
i fall down to my knees
i'm sick of waiting on my feet
but you never show up.

felicity, is that you that i'm seeing?
or my eyes might be dreaming?
i search for the reason in your eyes
you left me stranded here alone
were you testing the love i have for you?

tears in your eyes, scars on your skin
in your torn-up green dress
your bright red hair is a mess
did you go through the same misery
that i went through to see you?

felicity, it doesn't matter anymore
you're back in my arms now
don't you worry about nothing
my darling, i'll keep you safe
i'll cherish you forevermore.

you've met me right here
where the waves kiss the land
our feet drowning in this sand
you can take my hand
we will leave it all behind.
