See you wring the salt from your fingers,
A raft capsized in thee.
Unmoored and over and under,
Syphon it all and leave.
So heave
So haul
So sea
Nothing more
How can you fathom these waters,
Swallowed and girt by sea?
Gently we cradle the coastline -
Exhale the grains in me.
So ebb
So crawl
So wait
Nothing more
aaaaaaaaaa
And only us
And only her
And also hers
Also hers
Your tears are made of these waters,
We two/too dissolve in brine.
We'll wash where sky meets the water -
Broken and submerged in time.
So leave
So fall
So rest
Nothing more
The sky confides in me
The sky confides in me
The sky confides in me
The sea
The sea
The sea

Go now
We'll be travellers,
Dreaming of where we'll go -
Where will we go?
And the children
Will be travellers
Forgetting the worst
Swift like birds
Hope like birds
She is
Another gatherer
Feathers for them
Soften the blows
Till they're home
He is
Another traveller
Taking flight
Scars in his eyes
He closed her eyes
A flock now
Of gathered travellers,
Stories packed
Time will unwrap
Hands will unwrap
Here now
Be still be travelling
Feet on the sand
Swift like birds
Hope like birds

Do you see the pictures
On her window sill?
They'll fade there in the sun until
Faces packed,
She'll look back
Without the questions and be still
Do you feel the four walls
He is building deep?
If stones within those hands could speak,
They would clap,
Don't look back -
Build till the children all can sleep.
Can you see the sun
Can you see the sun ah-uh ah
Can you see the sun
It shines on every -
Can you see the sun
I know that you -
You can see
Look and see
See the sun shine
See the sun shine
On everyone.

The ocean's been,
The shore has come,
But the dessert greets us
And paints us as one
Wake up, my son,
For the sky is red
How did it follow -
Did it follow to this land?
No warning sign,
Just a quiet night
Only dusty red -
No falling metal sky
A dust storm
Is blowing in
Won't you paint my way?
A dust storm
Is blowing in
Fills up all the air
The ocean's been,
The shore has come,
The desert greets us
And swallows us up
Dust storm
Is blowing in
Fills up all the air
The ocean's been,
The shore has come,
The desert greets us
And swallows us up
Oh!
