I, too, once tasted the salt air
Lay in the sand where
Feet bare, I raveled in sand
I, too, once thought I was home there
Wasn't alone there
Up where it all came undone
Now I decay beneath the waves
My wine-dark grave
I envy tides, they come and go
I'm too late to save
I, too, once stood on the seashore
Hearing the waves roar
Down pour, when once I could weep
I, too, once heard someone call me
A song in the squalling
Falling, I sank in the deep
Now I decay beneath the waves
My wine-dark grave
I envy tides, they come and go
I'm too late to save
Aah-aah-aah
Aah-aah-aah
Aah-aah-aah
I, too, once gave in
I, too, once gave in
I, too, once gave in
Let the ocean wail
Come, let's decay beneath the waves
Our wine-dark grave
We'll be the tides that come and go
We're too late to save
You're too late to save
