Cover art for Sea People lyrics by Emilíana Torrini

She did something that changed their relationship, not something bad necessarily, but the change meant they could no longer be together.. you know, how sometimes a small little thing can render you incompatible with someone. But feelings are still there and the air is knocked out of you when you realise you can't be with the one you love... you feel like you're drowning with every gasp of air, because your love for that Mr Wrong is so overwhelming and it washes over you like the sea.
