Stephen Stills - Black Coral

Tekst piosenki:


Have you ever been down deep?
I mean way down under the ocean.
Just inside Odin's reach
Better beware of his potion
And remember you don't belong
It's always seemed so unfair
The fishes around will always remind you
Got to go slow, take it easy down there
You've only so much air.

When you get a little deeper
if you slow down you might keep her
The sea, unforgiving and she's hard
But she'll make love to you,
show you glimpses of the stars
At about two hundred feet
You realize the peril
But seductive is the deep
That shark over there holds no terror
For a while yo really belong
The ocean will always share
You become one, like friends and lovers
but remember take care
She'll try to keep you there.

The deeper you go cause of the pressure of the air
The nitrogen comes and goes (gets you high)
It's an alien atmosphere
The call it rapture of the deep
Be you not afraid
You're to far down by now to be scared
Two hundred eighty-seven feet
I saw Jesus and it made sense that he was there
So belong but don't be long.
There's plenty of ocean to share
Please take heed there's mouths to feed
The ocean, she'll provide
Don't take more than you need
Cause heaven just might be the sea.
