Toyah Willcox - Turning Tide lyrics

Keeper of the high seas Now we turn to you for harmony Forgive us Leviathan We're laughing in the hurricane If it's any consolation We've poisoned our soil And felled our trees The universe is closing in Let me Let me Let me swim The waves come Roll over my feet I descend the shore and the waves drink me I cast adrift this demon seed Swimming on a turning tide Sitting in a whirlpool Telephone minds on a party line Electric humming veins Buzzing in the singing wires Glistening splintered And sharp Gloriously augmented The waves come Roll over my feet I descend the shore and the waves drink me I cast adrift this demon seed Swimming on a turning tide Burning with the stars Shining with the sun Glowing with the moon Over my foot prints Roll and brake The leaving waves of yesterday Out on the great swell All is well I descend the shore and the waves drink me Cast adrift this demon seed I have found myself Swimming on the turning tide Swimming on the turning tide I open my eyes I pour away Liquid on a sea of space Laughing in the hurricane Swimming on the turning tide Cruising on a tidal wave I'm a speck on the surface of the great flow
