Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I pour cold water in my tea
And I drive down softly to the sea
And I wait and pray and I will leave
Somewhere better, when the waves wash shore over me
[Verse 2]
I have always found it hard to teach
And the water found it hard to see
But its well recorded and agreed
That the male seashore carries his children
[Verse 3]
I have had this baby in my womb
False contractions for a long time now
And I fear unless it happens soon
That my children will have no mother
No mother, so I swim down softly with the tide
And I go on softly faintin', why
And I beg, we thought to be alive
And I beg with him to be a bride
For the end of the city or the sun
To have that genius at my side
[Verse 4]
To take me out of my lips
Make me tread water
Get out of breath, and
Ward off my death
By keepin' those breaths of
All of those waves and
All of that water
[Verse 5]
Take me out of my lips
Make me tread water
Get out of breath and
Ward off my death
By keepin' those breaths of
All of those waves and
All of that water
[Verse 6]
Take me out of my lips
Make me tread water
Get out of breath and
Ward off my death
By keepin' those breaths of
All of those waves and
All of that water
[Verse 7]
Take me out of my lips
Make me tread water
Get out of breath and
Ward off my death
By keepin' those breaths of
All of those waves and
All of that water
[Verse 8]
Take me out of my lips
Make me tread water
Get out of breath and
Ward off my death
By keepin' those breaths of
All of those waves, and
All of that water
[Verse 9]
Take me out of my lips
Make me tread water
Get out of breath, and
Ward off my death
By keepin' those breaths of
All of those waves, and
All of that water
