[Tom plays acoustic guitar by himself, Tanya sings]

  
                    
She wears her dress high
                                     
As high as she pulls her hat down low

She's seeking out the places
                       
Those other people can't go
            
And hold her
                 
I'm touched by the sea (I'm touched by the sea)
                                                  
She's walking on water when she walks in her sleep

She's dragging me through places
                       '  '  
I didn't wanna be seen
              
She is a liar
               '  '
As i am a thief
                   
(Be)cause of you I came
                          
(Be)cause of you i leave
                           
I wanna know (I wanna know)
                                  
Why the monsters that hurt you so

Don't look like those things that
                     '  '
We battled so long ago
                 
And I thought I did my part
                                   
When I pulled you out of there
                                     '  '
That night you left boot-marks on my wall
          
You are my liar
                          '  '
So I will be your thief
                 
Because of you I came

[enter band]
               
Because of you I leave (x3)
                    
Wake up, baby we are home now (x3)
            
We are home now  (x3)
  

There ya go,
Spiffy
