lyrics

Catherine
None of us even like nicotine
But you bark and you bite like you've seen it all
I'm just happy to know someone's middle name
I'm happy to stand back and watch it all
I watched you grow up in a year or two
All your second guesses relayed to me
And I want to give you whatever you need

She's walking on water to you
She could be a good mother to you
And it always comes circling back to you, babe

Catherine
There's humour in secrets and whirlwinds
And as the tornado comes touching down
In a city where I've never been
I watch as you count every blessing
Baby it's gonna be okay
I'll never stop loving you

And I'm walking on water to you
I just want to see what you can do
With the words in your mouth like a wound
Oooh

Oooh
Mmm

Catherine
You see the beauty in everything
And you hear me vulnerable crying
You hold my hand through all the wreckage
The world that you wrote left me breathless
Will you help me weather this storm?
My ship's leaving harbour like yours
I want to believe for the first time
You're a faraway home to me

And I'm walking on water to you
I'm broken and aching and blue
But I know you'd kiss every bruise
Sometimes you feel miserable too
Sometimes you feel miserable too
