At The Bottom Of The Sea - The Thermals

The air isn’t thin

The air isn’t thick

The air isn’t anything

It doesn’t exist

It’s not what we need

At the bottom of the sea

The light is grey

The light is rare

It barely touches us

It’s barely there

The need

At the bottom of the sea

And now I’m barely there

For you

I’m barely there

For you

I will never come up

I will never compare

Wind to the sand

Water to air

It’s not what I want

It’s what I need

The love is near

I hear it speak

It’s in my sight

But just out of reach

It slips from my hand

Just like it did on the land

And now I’m barely there

For you

I’m barely there

For you

I’ll never come up

I will never compare

Wind to the sand

Water to air

It’s not what I want

It’s what I need

For the air

For the light

For the love

Is barely there

For me

At the bottom of the sea

For the air

For the light

For the love

Is barely there

For me

At the bottom of the sea

Oh

For the air

For the light

For the love

It’s not what I want

It’s what I need
