June was the lobster I dug by hand A haven that hid me well Beneath the sand The wide windy waves washed in But I stayed dry The great breakers broke again As I nodded off inside
And then When the Empress ran aground And my eyes blue and green I heard a gorgeous sound And that's when it became a dream
When the fell in When the hurricanes came for me I could finally crash again And that's how I became the sea
I wrenched the engines off And drank them down The depths turned the iron soft they swiftly drowned I brought the ocean side To its rusty knees As I felt the even tide Deep in my shallow dreams
And then When the Empress aground And my eyes turned blue and green I heard a gorgeous sound And that's when it became a dream When the sky fell in When the hurricanes came for me I could finally crash again And that's I became the sea
When the sky fell in (When the sky fell in) (When the sky fell in) When the hurricanes came for me I could finally crash again And that's how I became sea (How I became the sea) That's how I became the sea (How I became the sea) That's how I the sea (How I became the sea) (How I became the sea)
(When the sky fell in) (When the hurricanes came for me) could finally crash again) (And that's how I became the sea)
