I need you like morning 
Like dimes in my pocket 
I'll take you with you sunrise 
I'll take you any old time 
I need you like evening 
Like the bill I owed last week 
Like the sound of the city 
Like sleep like time 

There's no use for me now 
I've figured it out 
I'm a sailor ashore with no boat to sail out 
Onto the world to see all the pearls and planets and 
things 
The ocean doesn't sing without you 
But oh how it does how it does 

With you the edge of a mountain 
That free falling feelin' 
That hurt with the healin' 
The way my name sounds coming from 
Your lips is the best thing 
I ever been called 
I'm quietly enthralled the way you 
Move me it's paralyzingly 

There's no use for me now 
I've figured it out 
I'm a sailor ashore with no boat to sail out 
Onto the world to see all the pearls and planets and 
things 
What does anything mean without you 
But oh what it does what it does 

And then somebody knows 
Somebody holds 
Somebody wraps me up and folds me out 
You try out all these things 
Out from the deep I've never seen 
Not sure of anything other then the way 
You break me build me pour me out and fill me up  

Because without you without you 
I'll slide and I'll tune 
There's too much space in every room  
Without you no reason to dine when it's just plastic 
wine  
Without you now I've been to the tale of time  
Words hardly have use 
But oh how they do how they do 

There's no use for me now 
I've figured it out 
I'm a sailor ashore with no boat to sail out 
Onto the world to see all the pearls and planets and 
things 
What does anything mean without you 
But oh what it does what it does 
With you
