Jonah Myers - Tanjay

​I had a dream that a rosebush had moved to the phillipines
​And left me behind
​Never said goodbye, but a princess came by
​And looked out on the distant horizon

​She told me sometimes, when the world was too bright
​She wished she could sail away too
​I still don't know why they went over the ocean
​I could be there if i knew

​They set sail for Tanjay a long time ago
​Barely halfway in the dark undertow
​They were still sinking

​I brought down one small piece of autumn to those submarine flowers
​Just to prove that i was sorry
​And then i was out on the ocean alone
​Cause i had to resurface to breathe

​I know at the moment you're deep in the ocean
​But wait for the hope to rebound, because maybe, just
​Maybe one day i can plant you again
​Safe on solid ground

​And i'll never be far away, whether we are
​Unravelled or unwound
​That is the dream which is realer than princesses, rosebushes, tanjay
​Or anything we've found
