From the recording Too Far For Love
Lyrics
[Chorus]
So I guess he sealed the deal
I saw him first and let it slip
It's my fault
I lost my love
[Verse 1]
Just a girl too young to fear
Made me wish I wasn't scared
Made me wonder what she wears
Swim in summer with her hair untied
Sunglasses on my head
Who's gonna stop the sun from setting?
Who's gonna make us go to bed?
[Chorus]
So I guess he sealed the deal
I saw him first and let it slip
It's my fault
I lost my love
[Verse 2]
We were raising amateur alarm
Always known but never ours
I had my chance upon that park bench
She confesses
And tells me
"If you didn't run
He might belong to you instead
Who's gonna stop the sun from setting?
Who's gonna make us go to bed?"
[Chorus]
But I gave up and he gave in
He closes the curtain tight
She lays beside him every night
He was mine and now he's hers
She tells how my hands lost their hold on the leash
While we sink beneath these electric sheets
An eagle for each side of our crown
The twin sisters of Annapolis
The sisters of the drowned
[Bridge]
And I don't even need to know how she does it
But I like to think she sings in the morning
With the windows open
Rowing out toward the lighthouse
And I don't need to know
The silhouette that glowed upon the curtains she closed
Before she met me they spoke
[Chorus]
So I guess he sealed the deal
I saw him first and let it slip
It's my fault
I lost my love
