D5 D/C D/B D/Bb
You thought the leaden winter would bring you down forever,
D5 D/C D/B D/Bb
But you rode upon a steamer to the violence of the sun.
(guitar echoes bass)
D5 D/C D/B D/Bb
And the colors of the sea blind your eyes with trembling mermaids,
D5 D/C D/B D/Bb
And you touch the distant beaches with tales of brave Ulysses:
D5 D/C D/B D/Bb
How his naked ears were tortured by the sirens sweetly singing,
D5 D/C D/B D/Bb
For the sparkling waves are calling you to kiss their white laced lips.

And you see a girl's brown body dancing through the turquoise,
D5 D/C D/B D/Bb
And her footprints make you follow where the sky loves the sea.
D5 D/C D/B D/Bb
And when your fingers find her, she drowns you in her body,
D5 D/C D/B D/Bb
Carving deep blue ripples in the tissues of your mind.
