When I was seven I told my mother, |
|
To take me to the bay and put me on a ship. |
|
Silver swordfish electric, |
|
I can feel or dream down here. |
|
If the water should cut my mind, |
|
If the water should cut my life, |
|
If the water should cut my mind, |
|
Set me free, |
|
I don't care, |
|
I want to live in a bathysphere. |
|
When I was seven my father said to me, |
|
'But you can't swim.' |
|
And I've never dreamed of the sea again. |
|
If the water should cut my life, |
|
If the water should cut my line, |
|
If the water should cut my mind, |
|
Set me free, |
|
I don't care, |
|
I want to live in a bathysphere. |
