The rising tide is coming in I'm here but I have no fins And I wait like an urchin To stick to someone's skin Flies are attracted to my guitar Like honey in a jar Hovering from afar Towards where you are I've missed every boat and I'm insecure If I could breathe underwater, I'd feel much worse My world is small, your world is big I just see faces outflowing in the wind I don't hear you call nor see you comin' My heart is breaking like waves rolling in I'm being splashed by the blue From a happy luscious view But it floats something new
Every time I think of you Afar, the white whale still spouts Don't you know who's been through his mouth? The cool air uttered another shout So you better hurry out The man in the water smiles like a fish And he portrays that I might become another dish My world is small, your world is big I just see faces outflowing in the wind I don't hear you call nor see you comin' My heart is breaking like waves rolling in Now tell me, how many fish are left in the sea When I found plenty landing on the beach?
