Sea Legs

Of all the churning random hearts under the sun Eventually fading into night These two are opening now As we lie I touch you under fuller light Girl, if you're a seascape, I'm a listing boat For the thing carries every hope, I invest in a single lie The choice is yours to be loved Come away from it emptier, oh 'Cause when the dead moon rises again Be no time to stall or protocol to hem us in And when the dog slides underneath the train There's no time, no use to searching for the mutt's remains Throw all consequence aside And a cheerless pyre we will set alight Of all the intersecting lines in the sand I routed a labyrinth to your lap I never used a map, sliding off the land on an incidental tide And along the way, you know they try, they try We got sea legs and we're off tonight Can't have that to which they've no right You belong to a simpler time I'm a victim to the impact of these words and this rhyme 'Cause when the dead moon rises again Be no time to stall or protocol to hem us in Darling, when the dog slides, open the door and where'd she go? There's no time, no use to searching for the mutt's remains Throw all consequence aside And a cheerless pyre we will set alight
