So Heavenly Waves

My lady love she comes to me,
On clouds of promise up above the deep blue sea,
Where we will be,
Where we will be,
So heavenly,
Woo hoo,
So heavenly,
Woo hoo,
Now’s not the time she says to me,
The winds of autumn swirl above the deep grey sea,
Where we will be,
We still can be,
So heavenly,
Woo hoo,
So heavenly,
Woo hoo,
And all your heavenly waves come,
And all your heavenly waves come,
And all your heavenly waves come to me,
Woo hoo,
Come to me,
Woo hoo,
The tide it turns and we are free,
The summer blue it hangs above the deep green sea,
Where we will be,
We’ll always be,
So heavenly,
Woo hoo,
So heavenly,
Woo hoo,
And all your heavenly waves come,
And all your heavenly waves come,
And all your heavenly waves come to me,
Woo hoo,
Come to me,
Woo hoo,
Come to me,
Woo hoo,
Come to me,
Woo hoo,

Starfish

There are no starfish on this beach they say,
And I can see a million miles,
In your eyes,
And I don’t notice all the butterflies,
Cos they’ve gone missing from your sky,
Wonder why?
And who knows why?
All the starfish fly?
There is a red tide on the shoreline now,
A-washing through the undertow,
Watch it go,
And we can’t breath like this for long you know,
Our dreams will fall like ash and rain,
In the snow,
And who knows why?
All the starfish fly?
There are no starfish on this beach today,
And I can see a million miles,
In your eyes,
And who knows why?
All the starfish fly?

Whistlefish Song

Have you heard?
The Whistlefish when she sings?
Oh what’s that word?
When heavenly things are things?
And I know she’s always on the run,
Yeah yeah,
And I know she’s feeling so undone,
Yeah yeah,
Have you seen?
The Whistlefish when she dreams?
Oh what’s that scene?
With Juliet in the stream?
And I see the white horse in the sea,
Yeah yeah,
And I hope one day she’ll come to me
Yeah yeah,
Yeah yeah,
Thank the whelm of the tide she’s not alone,
Yeah yeah

I can’t tell you what to say,
And I can’t tell you what to be,
It’s just the whelm of the tide,
And the rolling of the sea,
Can you touch the tide of tenderness?
Let it roll,
Let it roll,
I can’t tell you what to do,
And I can’t tell you how to breath,
It’s just the swell of all the waves,
And the crashing of the sea,
Can you touch the tide of tenderness,
Let it roll,
Let it roll,
And we can ride the white horse through the sky,
And we can dive, see dolphins with your eyes,
I can’t tell you how to float,
And I can’t tell you to be free,
It’s just the whelm of the tide,
The white horse and the sea,
Can you touch the tide of tenderness,
Let it roll, let it roll,
In the tender sea,
Let it roll,
Let it roll,
Let it roll,

To all those angry men,
I say to them,
Get in the sea,
To all those angry men,
I say to them,
Get in the sea,
For we just don’t need your war,
And we just don’t need you anymore,
To all those angry men,
I say to them,
Get in the sea,
For we just don’t need your war,
And we just don’t need you anymore,

Phosphorescent Love
01:53
|
|||
|
I can see your light,
Where we swim tonight,
The moon will hold us up,
Phosphorescent love,
Yeah, yeah,
The sea it breaks your heart,
The sky a big star chart,
The cold it warms us up,
Phosphorescent love,
Yeah, yeah,
And you’re my mermaid call,
And you’re my one and all,
The tide it buoys us up,
Phosphorescent love,
Yeah, yeah,
Phosphorescent love,
Yeah, yeah,
Phosphorescent love,
Yeah, yeah,

This Brief Sojourn
02:45
|
|||
|
When hope is all you have,
The tide will turn,
Take down those flags, you never needed them,
When tears are all you see,
The tide will turn,
Turn off the sky and let the stars return,
When rain is all you feel,
The tide will turn,
Weave silence into peace, this brief sojourn,
This brief,
This brief,
This brief sojourn,

Do you feel overwhelmed?
Or do you feel under the weather?
Cos you could see all the world,
With such charm,
With such charm,
Do you feel underwhelmed?
Or do you feel over the weather?
Cos you could see all the world,
With such charm,
With such charm,
Yes you could see all the world,
With such charm,
With such charm,
When can there be the right amount of whelm?
For you and me?

Come down to Earth with a bang upon your head,
It doesn’t matter,
And life will take all those words that you fake,
Deceive to flatter,
Because we’re all just,
Swimming, swimming, swimming in the deep blue sea,
Come out to space, see the places that you waste,
Heads on a platter,
And life will take all the roses that your break,
It doesn’t matter,
Because we’re all just,
Swimming, swimming, swimming in the deep blue sea,
Because we’re all just,
Swimming, swimming, swimming in the deep blue sea,
Come down to Earth with a bang upon your head,
It doesn’t matter,
And life will take all those words that you fake,
Deceive to flatter,
Because we’re all just,
Swimming, swimming, swimming in the deep blue sea,
Because we’re all just,
Swimming, swimming, swimming in the deep blue sea,
Because we’re all just,
Swimming, swimming, swimming in the deep blue sea,
