Roaming softly through yourself
You watched the words change for someone else
Form an echo in a seashell
A drunken thought or a long farewell

And then tonight, I'll dive into your eyes
Will we feel like this for the rest of our lives?
Just stay put, tied to a stone
Do I really want the storm to be thrown?

All heard the sea, black and deep:
Everything I give is everything that I keep
So shake the leaves off this tree

And in the dark blue light
I watched the bottle sail into the night
Can't leave you home, shaking like a leaf
You couldn't swim even though you live by the sea

A flock of owls know your name
Will you promise me to stay there safe?

I leaned my hands on the old cold sand
I looked up and saw all the sunlight on you again

Right after night, I'll follow you home
Right after light, I'll follow your footsteps on the snow

(We heard the sea, black and deep)
(I heard the sea, black and deep) (repeat x3)
(We sailed the sea, black and deep)

We heard the sea, black and deep:
Everything I give is everything that I keep (repeat x13)
