david wilcox – how did you find me here lyrics

from how did you find me here?
…

the night i fell in sorrow
i knew i was alone
a dozen good-time friendships
but my heart is still unknown

i thought i saw your footsteps
in the sand along the sh-r-
and i mumbled empty phrases
that sang so well before

chorus
now inches from the water
about to disappear
i feel you behind me
how did you find me here?

i couldn’t reach for rescue
i hid myself from you
i couldn’t stand to see me
from your point of view

i knew i’d disappoint you
if i showed to you this child
who is crying out inside me
lost in the wild

chorus
now inches from the water
about to disappear
i feel you behind me
how did you find me here?

i feel you behind me
laughing in the water
wash away the tears
i feel you behind me
how did you find me here?
i feel you behind me
but how did you find me here?
