Karen Matheson Karen Matheson - The Dreaming Sea

The dreaming sea
Flexes in the lilac light
You're the moon and I'm the tide
Cradle my head
Kiss me like you wish me dead
Breathe life into me

'Til I feel as though I'll never sleep again
When I close my eyes I feel the whole world spin
'Til I don't know where you end, where I begin

The dreaming sea
Whispers, "Its too late to be saved"
The next kiss could be the ninth wave
The bluff clouds sway
Rain drops like pennies in a well
We spiral down into the deep

'Til I feel as though I'll never sleep again
When I close my eyes I feel the whole world spin
'Til I don't know where you end, where I begin

You and me
Upon the bare teeth of the rock
At the mercy of the dreaming sea

'Til I feel as though I'll never sleep again
When I close my eyes I feel the whole world spin
'Til I don't know where you end, where I begin
