I lost my father
to the waves of the ocean's teeth
I'll fall no longer
to the tale at the sirens' feet
I'll call my lover
to the shores of the distant sea
where hope, child, and patience
will keep our own company
She's the blue, bluewater
and I'm the ship that's sinking in
Singing Oh
I've fought the current
To heed those that come and go
I've lost before this
But now my tale begins to grow
She's the blue, bluewater
(you'll find me at the bottom with a drink in my hand)
and I'm the ship that's sinking in
(singing songs from my father's land)
she's the blue, bluewater
(you'll find me at the bottom with a drink in my hand)
I'm the cup she's drinking in
(singing songs from my father's land)
