Lyrics:

Over and over and over again
The tide carries
I give up my water and watch you sink in
Oh, the levy
At the night when the coastline breaks
You hide in the fallen waves

On the rise and the sights of typhoon
Washing by
And the rise falling in too
Holding tight
And the dull effects of your suitcase
Are casting again

Over and over and over again
(Oh the sun, oh the sun)
I give her my water and watch you sink in
(Oh mama, oh mama)
And night when the coastline breaks
You hide in the fallen waves

On the rise and the sights of typhoon
Washing by
And the rise falling in too
Holding tight
And the dull effects of your suitcase
Are casting again

Ooh oooh oooh
Ooh oooh oooh
Ooh oooh oooh

On the rise and the sights of typhoon

On the rise and the sights of typhoon
Washing by
And the rise falling in too
Holding tight
And the dull effects of your suitcase
Are casting again

Christ is Lord!

I know it's not part of the song, but those footsteps you hear at 1:20 give the song such a calming effect. The song feels so warm and raw. Hands down my favorite In The Open session by a landslide. The harmonies, the acoustics, the lighting, Eric with that damn fruit & Payam hanging out like the rad dude that he is; all of it adds to the reason why they're one of my favorite bands.

I can't handle sameers voice it's so Anngelic and they sound the exact Same live (if not better) and I fricking love them

[GJoel]

Big Young the Giant fan. After much thought, I've decided this is my favorite song of theirs. 

[aamirvahora]

This song is their most underrated. No question.

[Avisae]

francois adds so much to the song s'perf

[sallybon]

This band is the definition of musically gifted.

[sixthandelm]

Best part about this is at 1:44 when it cuts to the dude sitting down.

"I have no clue what I'm supposed to be playing right here....shit, I'm on camera... um... just act natural..."

[bthepreposition]

Wow... This song does not get the hype it deserves. Absolutely love this in the open version. It's probably my favorite of them all.

[catramax]

They should always sing, all of them. The guy doing the melody, his voice is beautiful 

[meoliver]

YTG you blow me away. I love your music!! And your open sessions really set you apart as one of the most talented bands to come along in a long time. 😘

[hunterbolton]

[MonsoonWinds]

I want to cry. I am so glad that they made an open session for this. This is my favourite song.

[rhcp]

this may be my favorite video on the internet

[johnmccann]

I haven't heard perfect harmony before, but this is pretty damn close.

[LiVNGWTR]

This song makes me cry..it's so heart felt and idk if it's just me but when i listen to certain songs they kinda give me that "strong audio pulse", but you can feel it in your chest sorta lol *I turn my music up wayyyy loud in my earphones* But anyway This song is amazing

[alexisrenee]

The beauty in this, is immeasurable. Their voices together sound like they just belong together. And the acoustics in whatever room they are in, make the song.

[indigoriviera]

This is why I love Young the Giant. They can make beautiful music anywhere they go-this is the mark of true musicians.
