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
