Ada Lea Saltspring Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You called me to tell me that you missed the last ferry
Heading to Saltspring but that i needn't worry
You'd be on the first one come the morning
Slept on the beach, in the cold, missing me
The dark was getting louder
You tried to start a fire
Rubbed two sticks together for hours

[Pre-Chorus]
Years gone by
Very Proustian, this passage of time

[Chorus]
Well I just found the letter dated august 2nd
The one you sent that summer saying this is how you see it
Were еither growing apart or growing together
Eithеr growing apart or growing together

[Verse 2]
You set out in the morning and went deep into the country
.22 slung over your back and then you shot a bunny
And where the hell'd you get a .22
Before I moved you called me
Said you'd be out west and likely wouldn't be returning That things were getting busy
But you'd come and visit once I'd settled into the city
[Pre-Chorus]
Years gone by
Very Proustian, this passage of time

[Chorus]
Well I just found the letter dated august 2nd
The one you sent that summer saying this is how you see it
We're either growing apart or growing together
Either growing apart or growing together

[Bridge]
Of all the days I remember with fondness
There is one that I am eager to forget
That's why I'm here on this very same island
To see if our names are still written in the sand

[Chorus]
I just found the letter dated august 2nd
The one you sent that summer saying this is how you see it
We're either growing apart or growing together
Either growing apart or growing together
