[Verse 1] You always come a little too late “Sorry,” you say with that low-tide smile Your voice rolls in midnight blue Deeper and deeper the whole night moves Through my glasses I watch you Maybe a little longer than I should [Verse 2] When the glasses come off everything changes I know the color behind your eyes Before we swim the air gets warmer Breathing like waves against the night No need to hurry No need to speak I already know where this will lead [Chorus] Ambergris… Midnight on my skin Quiet heat pulling me in Ambergris… Say my name again I rise to the surface then sink again Slowly… slowly… Come a little deeper with me tonight [Verse 3] I don't need to ask how you feel You move like a whale through the deep And I drift between your waves Following the scent of the sea Maybe I'm a mermaid Maybe I'm a fool Either way I'm swimming with you [Bridge] “Shall we sink a little deeper?” You smile and I almost laugh So I give you my breathing One more wave One more breath Down we go into the blue Until I forget which way is up [Final Chorus] Ambergris… Quiet breathing Midnight blue turns emerald green Ambergris… Hold it there Slowly… slowly… The glasses you broke I still remember And tonight I don't think I want to find the surface again…
