lyrics

Be careful with those threads
They'll soon unravel the more that is said
And be careful with you heart
It'll soon travel given the chance

It goes down, down, down
To the bottom of the sea
Down, down, down,
Longing to beat

Be careful with your dreams
They come back to haunt you
From wherever you buried them deep
For nothing's as it seems
You have to let go in order to keep

From going down, down, down
To the bottom of the sea
Down, down, down,
Longing to breathe

And it's a terrible thing
When you know it's the end
It's a terrible thing
When you know you'll just be friends

But it's a wonderful thing
The thing that we had
It's a wonderful thing
That we found
And it sounds like this
It sounds like this
It sounds like this
