Seashell -

You’re humming softly to yourself

You watch the words change for someone else

From an echo in a seashell

A drunken thought or a long farewell

And tonight I’ll dive into your eyes

Will we feel like this for the rest of our lives?

Just a bird, tied to a stone

Do I really want this stone to be thrown?

Under the sea, black and deep

Everything I give is everything that I keep

So shake the leaves off this tree

And in the dark and blue light

I watched the bottle sail into the night

Carried you home, shaking like a leaf

You couldn’t swim even though you lived by the sea

A flock of owls know your name

Will you promise me to stay the same?

Buried my hands in your cold sand

I looked up and saw the sun light up again

Night after night, follow you home

Night after night, I saw your footsteps in the snow

(Under the sea, black and deep) (5X)

Under the sea, black and deep

Everything I give is everything that I keep (12X)
