Lyrics

Shameless sea
Aimlessly so blue
Midnight moon shines for you
Still marooned
Silence drifting through
Nowhere to choose
Just blue
Ceaselessly
Star-crossed you and me
Save our souls
We'll be forever blue
Waves roll
Lift us in blue
Drift us
Seep right through
And colour us blue
Wait for me
Shameless you, the sea
Soon, the blue
So soon
Soon, the blue
So soon
Written by: David Gilmour, Polly Samson
