My Home Is The Sea - Live - Bonnie "Prince" Billy

I have often said

that I would like to be dead

in shark's mouth

a woman swimming under

her warm breath sendin' a thunder

on two parts south

and love is stripped and frayed

and duty is delayed

until next life

someone has my mind

holding yes so kind

it is my wife

and my home is the sea

my home is the sea

look not for me

my home is the sea

disaster flies upon me

and i sleep

we can see the house lights

colored from a distance

for a party as a dream

my tongue will into me

my arms unfold these seeds

cause im a strong man

and do not love my tummy

is round and firm and funny

and thats what i am

my home is the sea

my home is the sea

i am under your spell

you will have me i reckon

and the drowning this town

as a drowning i welcome

i know nothing and im over joyed

i know nothing and im over joyed

i know nothing and im over joyed

god gave you life and thought

now its ours to waste

i have the finest love

and the finest taste

see her when im home

i am home

you are home
