Song to the Sea

I beg you raise your water to the feet tonight.

So I can dip my toes, and remember what it's like.

Just feeling free and having all the time I need,

this is why I sing the song to the sea

Beg you raise your water to the feet of mine

so I can dip my toes, remember what it's like

just feeling free and having all the time I need

this is why I sing the song to the sea

I think of salt and sun and slightly blowing winds

I think of how I've cursed those rotten old love things

just riding on nobody tells me where to be

this is why I sing the song

this is why I sing the song

this is why I sing the song to the sea

The dancing dunes are doing dishes with my brain

the disco drums are driving discords down to drain

I remain a bit then go on a bit, the tide comes and goes as I breath

this is why I sing the song

this is why I sing the song

this is why I sing the song to the sea

Been waiting all my life for something that's going to stay

been waiting all my life for something that won't go away

I thought everything's dissolving, now found something that is going to be

this is why I sing the song

this is why I sing the song

this is why I sing the song to the sea

Now I'm back to grey town

the city lights arise

they're burning my soul down

I slowly recognize

that king prawns on concrete

ain't something that I need

I never felt at ease

with all this city heat

this is why I sing the song

this is why I sing the song

this is why I sing the song to the sea
