Sea Of No Cares

Click Here for guitar tabs (two versions).

When you're in love, there's no time and no space,
There's a permanent smile on your face;
Your friends all complain that you're going insane,
But the truth is they're just afraid.

Hey (hey) hey somewhere,
You threw your fear in the sea of no cares;
Hey, hey, hey somewhere,
You threw your fear in the sea of no cares.

When you decide that what counts is inside,
Your friends all say it's a lie;
But there's no brighter light than the look in her eyes,
When you're walking her home through the night.

Hey (hey) hey somewhere,
You threw your fear in the sea of no cares;
Hey, hey, hey somewhere,
You threw your fear in the sea of no cares.

Let yourself go with the tide,
There's an angel by your side tonight;
You feel your fear in the sea.

Oh, back at the bar getting cynically stoned,
Your friends are drinking alone;
But it's funny, 'cause they don't even cross your mind
When she asks you into her home.

Hey (hey) hey somewhere,
You threw your fear in the sea of no cares;
Hey, hey, hey somewhere,
You threw your fear in the sea of no cares.

You threw your fear in the sea,
You threw your fear in the sea.
