driftin' away from the shore, into the open sea
I'll sleep on the ocean tonight, with the moon at my feet
carving your name with my head, in the black oak tree
eh eh eh eheh
oh oh oh ohoh
a king without kingdom or throne
now where'd it go
conquering islands of hope all alone
eyes wide open and shoutting them closed
all you see is your ghost
oh oh oh ohoh
grows by the size of the rain
coming back again
ongoing memories fade
old pictures remain
speak slowly to me my dear
and I'll swim to you
to you
oh oh oh ohoh
to you
oh oh oh ohoh
