Lumineers, The - Dead Sea Lyrics
I stood alone, upon the platform in vain
The Puerto Ricans they were playing the salsa in the rain
With open doors and manual locks
In fast-food parking lots
New York, it lied to me, I needed the truth
Oh, I need somebody, I needed someone I could trust
And I don't gamble, but if I did I would bet on us
Like the Dead Sea
You told me I was like the Dead Sea
You'll never sink when you are with me
Oh, Lord, like the Dead Sea
I'm like the Dead Sea
[Album version:] The finest words you ever said to me
Honey can't you see
I was born to be, be your Dead Sea
You told me you were good at running away
Domestic life, it never suited you like a suitcase
You left with just the clothes on your back
took the rest when you took a nap
Yes, there are times we live for somebody else
Your father died and you decided to live it
For yourself you felt, you just felt it was time
And I'm glad, 'cause you with cats, that's just not right
Like the Dead Sea
You told me I was like the Dead Sea
You'll never sink when you are with me
Oh, Lord, I'm your Dead Sea
I'm like the Dead Sea
The nicest words you ever said to me
Honey can't you see
I was born to be, be your Dead Sea
I've been down, I've been defeated
You're the message, I will heed it
Would you stay
Would you stay the night?
Dead Sea
told me I was like the Dead Sea
You'll never sink when you are with me
Oh, Lord, I'm your Dead Sea
I'm like the Dead Sea
The nicest words you ever said to me
Honey can't you see
I was born to be, be your Dead Sea

I was once born to be born again.
This was my daughter’s wedding song..... beautiful beautiful wedding... the words tore me up to listen to at the wedding and now it tears me up even more after the divorce......
2020 and I'm still in love with this song
Hi my friend made a cover please check it out ^ ^ https://youtu.be/qsv6__FEcdc
คุณจะยังเข้ามาฟังอยู่มั้ย.
Eu estava sozinho em cima da plataforma em vão
Os porto-riquenhos estavam tocando sua salsa na chuva
Com portas abertas e fechaduras manuais
Em estacionamentos de fast food
Eu fui para o oeste eu era um homem em movimento
Nova York mentiu para mim, eu precisava da verdade
Oh, eu preciso de alguém, eu preciso de alguém que possa confiar
E eu não jogo, mas se jogasse, apostaria em nós
Como o mar morto
Você me disse que eu era como o mar morto
Você nunca vai afundar quando estiver comigo
Oh Senhor, como o mar morto
Woah, eu sou como o mar morto
As melhores palavras que você já me disse
Querida, você não vê
Eu nasci para ser, ser o seu mar morto
Você me disse que era boa em fugir
A vida doméstica nunca lhe serviu como uma mala
Você partiu apenas com as roupas em suas costas
Eles levaram o resto quando você tirou uma soneca
Sim, há tempos em que vivemos para alguém
Seu pai morreu
E você decidiu viver por si mesma, você sentiu
Você só sentiu que era hora
E eu estou contente, porque você com os gatos
Isso simplesmente não é correto
Como o mar morto
Você me disse que eu era como o mar morto
Você nunca vai afundar quando estiver comigo
Oh Senhor, como o mar morto
Woah, eu sou como o mar morto
As melhores palavras que você já me disse
Querida, você não vê
Eu nasci para ser, ser o seu mar morto
Eu estive para baixo, eu fui derrotado
Você é a mensagem que vou acatar
Você ficaria comigo
Você ficaria a noite
Oohh
Como o mar morto
Você me disse que eu era como o mar morto
Você nunca vai afundar quando estiver comigo
Oh Senhor, como o mar morto
Woah, eu sou como o mar morto
As melhores palavras que você já me disse
Querida, você não vê
Eu nasci para ser, ser o seu mar morto
What a song......
bonita canción en momentos solitarios de soledad....
I'm here to help anyone https://youtu.be/33XhrELimNQ
Hurt everytime when i listen to this song.... I think the guy in the song is holding on the fainting hope for the better future with his partner together.... but in deep down he's the one who cant leave the past..... ☹️
M, it’s been several months since we have last talked. I hope you are okay. I saw you in a plane crash in my dreams last night, I wish I could teleport myself to see that you are okay wherever you are. I hope she keeps warm and gives you all the love you are worth. While, I think you in songs like this, .....
🇯🇴🇯🇴🇯🇴
I still listen to this song OMG does anybody here or it's a dead sea 😂😂
I wish I was someone's dead sea
Is this song about Cleopatra and her son?
Thought it was new song..... 5yrs old
ive always listened to this song and other songs by them and ive always kept a different place in my heart for them. today im sitting here, alone, and somehow it reminds of my old friends. i miss them so much. and i wish things never changed but it did and it always does. and it hurts even years later now that ive grown so much over the time and some people who were a part of me, havent seen me grow.
Nice song friend 😊👍🏻🔔
What does he mean by " domestic life it never suited you like a suitcase?
She’s an adventurer. Domestic life is like settling down somewhere and living out a life. She wants action, travel, and any other action that will suck the marrow from life.
Loved are the lumineers
There was this woman who truly loved me for who i was. Although somewhat promiscuous who isnt? I was immature. And for that i am forever in sorrow. Single 6 - 7 years just about... oh maryannnn what i would do just to see those beautiful blue eyes just onemore time your the only woman i ever truly loved and you are the only woman i still love. Nightly i dream of you. It haunts me. This lonely man will never stop loving you. 🖤💖🖤💖🖤💖🖤💖🖤💖🖤
I'm sure she'll never forget you either. It's 4 am for me here, and your words describe my emotion, to a T, for someone I love. I can only hope they've felt the same at some point, cause lord knows how much this hurts. Thoughts are with you..
im like the dead sea
Dani Noce ❤
Been a rough year, this song is so uplifting.
Amo fuerte 💕

You are still beautiful when you aren't smiling.
I wish there was a single person in this world that felt that way about me, I know I've got both moments of beauty and ugliness, I'm sure we all do.
But given that I'm still standing here today, I'd say the beauty constantly Trump's the ugly, and yet ,here I am alone.
Another night in a million.
Still alive and still kickin.
Eu amo essa banda ❤❤❤
I thought the reference to the Dead Sea was a metaphor for the Dead Sea having tributaries, but no distributaries. Meaning, water flows into the dead sea, but nothing comes out of it. .................................All take, but no give.
Love your song
Me and my grandma would listen to this song in the car and sing to it terribly for fun and we would look at each other smiling
The Dead Sea is a real place, it’s in the Middle East, it’s lowest point on Earth and it’s so salty that you don’t sink,
Maravilhosa canção
People say this song was made in the stone ages. I love the song.
This song actually made me quit my job and went traveling for a year. Now I am back in my same own town. Sleeping on the same bed since i was a baby.
My old babysitter used this song in her wedding. I cry every time I listen to this song, and I practically balled at the wedding..
Form my experience: Trust Is Nothings.
classic. will be with me a long time.
Love this song so much, reminds me of my ex :,) and nostalgia hits me in the guts
I don't know if I can ever get over this song. It has become like the theme song of my life. It starts playing inside my head of its own accord whenever I am sad or just plain ruminative.
My wife and i were homeless. I had to find strenghth in places i wouldve never thought. Did things i would never do. My wife before leaving for rehab told me she knew why i was that way. How sorry she was that i let a part of me die so we could survive. This song reminds me of the part of me that survived and how much my wife means to me. I love and miss her. Tomorrow is not promised. I hope she comes back to me so i can feel her warmth. Her energy. I love you baby! You are my sunshine
Live for urself. It's time😉
Why does everybody like this song so much? I like it but it's not THAT good.
I love this song so much! It makes me cry thinking about the words...👍
If only i could be somebody’s dead sea...
My oxygen
I never sink when you are with me
I will always love you K3🖤
I am lucky to live close to the dead sea ..and in case some of you do not know..
The dead sea is the lowest point on dry land..full of salt so animals can't live there basically ..so no fishes at all ..and in it you will float and as the luminners say ..you won't sink :)
Andddd I love this song as much as I love the dead sea
last song i sang to her before she disappeared
Wherever you are i hope you keep breathing....
IM SO GLAD THIS SONG IS BAVK BC OF SOME COPYSTRIKE/COPYRIGHT SHÏT IDK HDSHSHSKDK I LOVE IT SM !!!!
You're like the dead sea
So salty
The strings really add a lot to the song.
I love how smart this song is. Like the dead sea. You will never sink when ur with me. The dead sea is so salty it's extremely hard to sink in it.
I forgot how much I loved this song.
i had turned 12 the day this song was uploaded
Im here
Cool beans
Hoping you see this Zaden
This band is a diamond in the rough... a lot of the music of today is questionable, at best. The Lumineers shine! My favorite

New fan here. I'm so glad I found this band. What have I been doing all my life?!
such a cute song i hope it will be my wedding song
One of the best days of my life were floating in the dead sea with my love ... Now he has gone 😔
dont forget mY NUTS
There is actually a place called "Dead Sea" ("The sea of death", or "The sea of salt") and it's located in the lowest spot in the world, in Israel.
It's called this way because nothing can live in its water.
It's almost impossible to drown there, your body will keep floating ("You'll never sink when you are with me.").
Beautiful song, I love The Lumineers. Greetings from Israel! <3
I was there two weeks ago and it was spectacular :)
"your father died and you decided to live it for yourself, you just felt it was time" Am I the only one who feels a connection between this line and sleep on the floor? and at the same time with the line from Cleopatra "with my father in a casket I had no plans"...?
He told us last night the meaning of the song.Fiddlers green.......his then girlfriend now his wife said it to him during a phone call one night...that he was like the dead sea...lifting her up when she felt down...
👋🏽 from Colorado!
Hi my friend made a cover please check it out ^ ^ https://youtu.be/qsv6__FEcdc
I wonder if she thinks back to when I showed her this song
algum br?
Bella al cazzo
Bella bella
magniquement exeptionnelle merci pour ces bons moment
de partages.
. Jaime troppppppp
Sleep on the Floor was made when this album came out, but wasn't released until Cleopatra. I feel like Dead Sea and Sleep on the Floor kinda connect in a way
This is so fucking beautiful.
3:08-3:22💜💞💜💞😢
0:00 - 4:08 <3
Miss you, Dad!
I didn't really know about the Lumineers until about 5 months ago, they are awesome...their songs are easy to play and sing...I pretty much learned Cleopatra in it's
entirety in a single week-end.....they make one think....maybe too much...I needed this now...THANK YOU LUMINEERS..
oh my god.. I feel so free
the dead sea is a lake between Israel and Jorden thats has a high amount of salt in it. because of that, when you get inside it you float, you dont sink.
"you told me I was like the dead sea, you"ll never sink when your with me"
:)
