[00:00.65] Breathe life to the street from the mouth
[00:04.30]
[00:05.60] Those ruby red lips have much to give
[00:08.07]
[00:08.62] Pull life from the land with your capable hands
[00:12.32]
[00:13.87] Those life loving beautiful broken hands
[00:16.12]
[00:17.15] Oh, I'll stand with you and marvel
[00:19.32]
[00:20.13] At the cosmos pink and bright
[00:22.40]
[00:23.48] All the pages flipping backwards
[00:25.48]
[00:27.33] Til time is gone and wrong is right
[00:29.68]
[00:30.63] Rivers running up the hills
[00:32.16] And to the sky and down to the sea
[00:34.34]
[00:36.85] Where a merman with a twinkle
[00:39.52] Casts a hook in me
[00:41.25]
[00:47.42] Sing me a salty blue song, I'll be gone
[00:50.85]
[00:52.22] With watery cheeks down flowered lanes
[00:54.47]
[00:55.40] Tattered sails on a ramshackle ship
[00:58.25] I'll go pale
[00:58.99]
[01:00.11] Staring straight in the face
[01:01.62] Looming tempest waves
[01:02.86]
[01:03.64] Otherwise I'll wither and die here
[01:06.11]
[01:06.66] On this reach of rubble rambling
[01:08.70]
[01:10.19] With two years filled up with sand, dear
[01:12.81]
[01:13.77] In a broken daze I'll be scrambling
[01:15.92]
[01:17.22] Like rivers running up the hills
[01:18.81] And to the sky and down to the sea
[01:21.00]
[01:23.34] Where a merman with a twinkle
[01:26.18] Casts a hook in me
[01:28.49] Wo, ha ha ha ha
[01:32.86]
[01:33.97] Wo, ha ha ha
[01:37.01]
[01:40.68] Wo, ha ha ha ha
[01:45.66]
[01:47.18] Wo, ha ha ha
[01:50.29]
[01:53.49] Summer sky falling into the sea
[01:56.60] Taking part of me
[01:57.62]
[01:58.45] See the bones on the sand in the light
[02:00.72]
[02:01.78] All the heards of the sea rushing by
[02:04.78] Pay no mind
[02:05.46]
[02:06.74] To the dancing reflections gone wild
[02:09.06]
[02:10.15] And at night a fractured star fell
[02:12.16]
[02:13.44] And pierced right through the thick of me
[02:16.08]
[02:16.78] I cried out in pain and joy, yes
[02:19.42]
[02:20.05] I'm not dead, not numb, not withering
[02:22.26]
[02:23.88] Like a falling leaf who keeps her green
[02:25.93] I'm turning bright in the sea
[02:27.51]
[02:30.08] Where a merman with a twinkle
[02:32.51] Casts a hook in me
[02:34.47]
[02:35.00] Wo, ha ha ha ha
[02:39.17]
[02:40.55] Wo, ha ha ha
[02:43.55]
[02:47.28] Wo, ha ha ha ha
[02:52.57]
[02:53.65] Wo, ha ha ha
[02:56.82]
[03:00.50] Wo, ha ha ha ha
[03:05.60]
[03:07.14] Wo, ha ha ha
[03:10.33]
