Mother Sea

I looked out over the blue
And breathed in the new, old air
Wondered where it had been
Before it got here
Little bell in a cage
Singing to me happily
I wanted to swim out far
To keep him company

Mother Sea blew her
Sweet breath on me
Telling me there's so much
More to be seen

Yes I remember now
I remember now
How it goes

I remember the tears
For the jellyfish
Drowned in the sand
I wavered in the waves
With seaweed in my hand
I wanted to fly under
The wings of the gulls
Overhead
I longed to know what lies
Beyond that line

Mother Sea blew her
Sweet breath on me
Telling me there's so much
More I can be
Mother Sea blew her
Sweet breath on me
Telling me there's so much
More I must be

Yes I remember now
I remember now
How it goes

Now I know just what
My godmother was for

Mother Sea blew her
Sweet breath on me
Telling me there's so much
More I must see
Mother Sea blew her
Sweet breath on me
Telling me there's so much
More we can be

Yes I remember now
I remember now
How it goes
