lyrics

Waves
In the moonlight
The way they look
They seem just a bit unreal
The dark
Of the ocean
Plus the dulled bright shine Of the moon and stars
They meet in the surf
In the evening
You walk past, you glance You take it all in and you gulp
(Gulp)
Waves
In the moonlight
Like a coal black lava flow Churning all night on the beach
Or the mouth
Of a wormhole
Gobbling matter and time Through the dark of the night
Waves break
On the shoreline
Like a big black tide of Giant tumblin’ dice
Determining our fate
It’s enough
In the moonlight
To make you feel The weight of eternity
Nothing around
But you
And the ocean
And all of its infinitude
You’re like Gumby Bearing witness
To this clay­animated Molten ob­sidian sea
And the enormity of life
Waves
In the moonlight
The way they look
You feel just 1 years old
You’re a babe
In your mum’s arms
The world’s all around But it’s too vast, to grasp
You look about
Wide eyed, the wind in your hair You sense mainly that there’s
A whole lot more than you see
So much more
Waves
In the moonlight
The way they look
They seem just a bit unreal
Control is
An illusion
We're at the mercy o' this sea of Totally unfathomable murk
Standing
On a dune at night And you know­ow­ow You just know
Oh waves
