Left my heart on the beach with the tide out
Sun dippin’ low givin’ glow to all the good neighbours
Those clouds, man, did they drink
I drank too like it might be my last sip and I swirled it there in my mouth, painting my tongue a kind of magic
Bear’s hands were holding the cups and I have the good eye so I took all the photos, freezin’ my hand skin as offerin’, trade, holy sacrifice
And then the red x pinged off the horizon and splashed us both diagonal, split us both in two cause then more of us could witness
Bear’s mug clanked my mug and we two stepped with the teasing foam as it came knocking on our boots, kissing at our toes
