|
Whenever she's alone |
|
Alone that child she dares |
|
To flair her icy bones |
|
Half naked into the air |
|
Just to find the spot |
|
The one that makes you weak |
|
To draw more than the queen's lot |
|
By the end of every week |
|
And you can tell me |
|
About the useless sea |
|
On behalf of the widow |
|
Of a sailor soon to be free |
|
You can tell me |
|
About the useless sea |
|
And we can dance like diamond thieves at the fair |
|
And we can dance like open windows in the evening air |
|
Whenever she's alone |
|
That woman dares to keep |
|
Leaking boats built too low |
|
To move us in our sleep |
|
And if you find the place |
|
The one that made you grow |
|
Crowns of flowers in the girl's face |
|
Chasing blood into the river's flow |
|
And you can tell me |
|
About the useless sea |
|
On behalf of the widow |
|
Of the sailor soon to be free |
|
You can tell me |
|
About the useless sea |
|
And we can dance like diamond thieves at the fair |
|
And we can dance like open windows in the evening air |
