You Are / Just Like Me

please come home soon,
but i know it's so hard to do
wear that white dress you used to
wear as a child
and i'll keep my shoulders down,
for this is what i need
you glitter like breaking waves

so you sing me back to sleep
and say "we're not lonely anymore"
and we're swept back to sea and waves but
i don't mind if you don't


you asked me to sing, so i did
until you fell asleep on my shoulder
a new sense of worth and all it offers
that i'll keep my shoulders down,
for this is what i need
no longer wailing for substance

so you drag me out of sleep
and say "we're not lonely anymore"
and we're swept back to sea and waves but
i don't mind if you don't
