Lyrics

[Verse 1]
This land belongs to the gulls
And the gulls to their cry
And their cry to the wind
And the wind belongs to no one
The wind belongs to no one
[Verse 2]
I gave my breath to the song
To the song, wasn't mine
Neither a ship, nor a sea
Neither of glass, nor of wine
[Verse 3]
Leaving this ghost of a road
I'm climbing hand over hand
Toward that pinprick of light
Toward the sea that God sowed
Toward the sea that God sowed
Toward the sea that God sowed
Toward the sea that God sowed
[Verse 4]
Toward the sea that God sowed
Toward the sea that God sowed
Toward the sea that God sowed
Toward the sea that God sowed
[Verse 5]
Oh, baby
I try to recognize it in my mind
Try to stamp it out before it happens
I try to recognize it in my mind
Try to stamp out
[Verse 6]
(The writing's on, the writing's on, the writing's on the wall)
Try to stamp it out
(The writing's on, the writing's on, the writing's on the wall)
(The writing's on, the writing's on, the writing's on the wall)
(The writing's on, the writing's on, the writing's on the wall)
[Verse 7]
(The writing's on, the writing's on, the writing's on the wall)
(The writing's on, the writing's on, the writing's on the wall)
(The writing's on, the writing's on, the writing's on the wall)
The writing's on, the writing's on the wall
[Verse 8]
This land belongs to the gulls
And the gulls to their cry
And their cry to the wind
And their cry to the wind
And their cry to the wind
