Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Wishful crystal water covers
Everything in blue
Coolin' water
[Verse 2]
Wishful, sinful
Our love is beautiful to see
I know where I would like to be
Right back where I came
[Verse 3]
Wishful, sinful, wicked blue
Water covers you
Wishful, sinful, wicked you
Can't escape the blue
[Verse 4]
Magic risin' sun is shinin'
Deep beneath the sea
But not enough for you and me and sunshine
Love to hear the wind cry
[Verse 5]
Wishful, sinful
Our love is beautiful to see
I know where I would like to be
Right back where I came
[Verse 6]
Wishful, sinful, wicked blue
Water covers you
Wishful, sinful, wicked you
Can't escape the blue
[Verse 7]
Love to hear the wind cry
Love to hear you
Cryin', yeah
