Saltwater Lyrics

Cover art for Saltwater lyrics by Beach House

Amazing how music can gain new and powerful meaning once you go through life and all of its' experiences...been listening and loving Beach House for a few years, but now just that has happened. This album has been on my to-buy-list for a while, it suddenly appeared before me at a record store while I was on a trip to Switzerland with one of my best friends who I realized I had so many...too many...feelings for. I say too many because l know she doesn't feel the same way (believe me, I tried hahaha), but can't help it - though I value our friendship above all which is why I've been able to live with it, and why I will continue to! Anyhow, imagine my surprise after the trip and rollercoaster of heartache when I play the album after not listening to it for a while, and these are the first lyrics to greet me...

"Love you all the time, even though you're not mine"

Yup, that's me hahahaha...pretty much shattered me immediately, gosh darn it Victoria and Alex you are masters of the intimate and the tender...this song will hold that special meaning to me, forever. Endless love to you, Beach House.
