lyrics

We've both been running from something we can't see.
You've been treasure hunting, a chest sunk in the sea.
I've been saving something I keep inside of me.

Are my feet on the ground,
or is my head in the sand?
Is there more to be found
than this heart in your hand?
'Cause we ain't seen a damn thing.
We don't know where the ship sank.
But my love is worth something.
You can take it to the bank.

We've combed those beaches of semi-precious stones.
Riches beneath us, how much I'll never know.
All I've learned of each is how far it could be thrown.

Are my feet on the ground,
or is my head in the sand?
Is there more to be found
than this heart in your hand?
'Cause we ain't seen a damn thing.
We don't know where the ship sank.
But my love is worth something.
You can take it to the bank.

I said, my love is worth something.
You can take that to the bank.
