Youn Sun Nah - The Dawntreader

Tekst piosenki:


Peridots and periwinkle
blue medallions
Gilded galleons spilled
across the ocean floor
Treasure somewhere
in the sea and
he will find where
Never mind their questions
there's no answer for
The roll of the harbor wake
The songs that the
rigging makes
The taste of the
spray he takes
And he learns to give
He aches and
he learns to live
He stakes all his silver
On a promise to be free
Mermaids live in colonies
All his seadreams
come to me

City satins left at
home I will not need them
I believe him
when he tells of
loving me
Something truthful
in the sea your lies
will find you
Leave behind your streets
he said and come to me
Come down from
the neon nights
Come down from
the tourist sights
Run down till the
rain delights you
You do not hide
Sunlight will
renew your pride
Skin white by skin golden
Like a promise to be free
Dolphins playing in the sea
All his seadreams come to me

Seabird I have seen you
fly above the pilings
I am smiling at your circles
in the air
I will come and sit
by you while
he lies sleeping
Fold your fleet wings
I have brought
some dreams to share
A dream that
you love someone
A dream that
the wars are done
A dream that
you tell no one
but the grey sea
They'll say
that you're crazy
And a dream of a baby
Like a promise to be free
Children laughing out to sea
All his seadreams come to me
