Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I've, I have swum those ragin' seas
Washed up by an ocean who had tired of me
How I survive, I will never know
But this wreck's got a home and a whole lot of hope
[Verse 2]
I'm out on a beach, sat on a rock
Thinkin' of you and the love I've got
Saw the Devil's servant
I sent her home
Said, "Bring me your master, I don't want his dog"
[Verse 3]
I'm on fire
I'm full of a new desire
I'm on fire
I'm full of a new desire
Full of love and new desire
[Verse 4]
I lit my fire, blew my conch, nobody comes
I built my boat from bamboo
But it sunk
I looked at the sky for vapor trails
Nobody comes
'I wrote your name on a tree
Along with the days this has taken you away from me
[Verse 5]
I'm out on a beach eatin' my heart
Thinkin' of you and the love I've got
Saw the Devil's servant
I sent her home
I said, "Bring me your master, I don't want his dog"
[Verse 6]
But I'm on fire
I'm full of a new desire
I need somebody like you
I'm on fire
I'm not afraid to die
Not afraid to die
There you go
Not afraid to die
[Verse 7]
I'm out on a beach eatin' my heart
Thinkin' of you and the love I've got
Saw the Devil's serpent
I sent him home
I said, "Bring me your master, I don't want his dog"
I'm out on a beach, sat on a rock
Thinkin' of you and the love I've got
Saw the Devil's servant
I sent her home
I said, "Bring me your master, I don't want his dog"
[Verse 8]
I'm out on a beach, sat on a rock
Thinkin' of you and the love I've got
(I need somebody like you)
Saw the Devil's servant
I sent her home
Said, "Bring me your master, I don't want his dog"
(Lit my fire and I blew my conch)
I'm out on a beach eatin' my heart
Thinkin' of you and the love I've got
(Feeling you when the leaders were young)
(I need somebody like you)
Saw the Devil's servant
I sent her home
(Love me and lose me 'cause I won't die)
Said, "Bring me your master, I don't want his dog"
[Verse 9]
I'm out on a beach, sat on a rock
(I built my boat from bamboo)
Thinkin' of you and the love I've got
(But it sunk)
Saw the Devil's servant
I sent her home
(Not afraid to die)
Said, "Bring me your master, I don't want his dog"
(Lit my fire and I blew my conch)
I'm out on a beach, sat on a rock
(I'm on fire)
Thinkin' of you and the love I've got
Saw the Devil's servant
I sent her home
