Gretchen Peters — Everything Falls Away lyrics

Lyrics

Wasn’t a cloud in the sky when the news arrived
Just another bluebird day
Just a voice on the phone saying I’m sorry
Everything falls away
So I went down to the sea to look for you
Found the moon and the Milky Way
Watched the tide take back what it gave to me Everything falls away
I live in the fear that my heart will break
I look for the thing that’ll cure the ache
Just one thing that the world can’t take away
I want to dive beneath the undertow
Down to the bones of the earth below
I want to know, I want to know — where did you go?
I saw you so clear in a dream last night
Diving from the cliffs at Echo Bay
The arc and the pause and the slow descent
Everything falls away
