The Saltwater Room -- Owl City

I opened my eyes last night and saw you in the low light 
Walking down by the bay, on the shore, staring up at the planes that aren't there
anymore  I was feeling the night grow old and you were looking so cold
Like an introvert, I drew my over shirt  Around my arms and began to shiver
violently before   You happened to look and see the tunnels all around me
Running into the dark underground  All the subways around create a great sound
To my motion fatigue... farewell   With your ear to a seashell
You can hear the waves in underwater caves  As if you actually were inside a saltwater room

Time together is just never quite enough  When you and I are alone, I've never felt so
at home  What will it take to make or break this hint of love?
We need time, only time  When we're apart whatever are you thinking of?
If this is what I call home, why does it feel so alone  So tell me darling, do you wish
we'd fall in love?  All the time, all the time

Can you believe that the crew has gone and wouldn't let me sign on?
All my islands have sunk in the deep, so I can hardly relax or even oversleep
I feel as if I were home some nights when we count all the ship lights
I guess I'll never know why sparrows love the snow
We'll turn off all of the lights and set this ballroom aglow                  (sing365)

Owl City is an electronica/pop project of Minnesota native Adam Young. He explained to Female First that this song, "is about swimming class in junior high."              (songfacts)
