Perfect Water Lyrics

Perfect water
The dark wind braids the waves
The crazed birds raid the trees
Is this our destiny?

To join our hands at sea
And slowly sink
And slowly think
This is perfect water
Passing over me

Do you know Jacques Cousteau?
Well it said on the radio
That he hears bells in random order
Deep beneath the perfect water

Lord that is frightening
But still, so inviting
To drown drown Drown inside a sound
And lay So far underground
And to think And to think
And to think And to think
This is perfect water
Passing over me

To flow inside the spiral tide
To drop my eyes like a bride and ride
Across the curve unmarked by borders
It waits for me like an orphaned daughter
A life A life of perfect order
The strange The strange and perfect water
A life A life of perfect order
The strange The strange and perfect water

Perfect water
I dream this dream within the deep and warm Gulf Stream
Where two blocks of ice
Melt into my hands like dice and I roll Seven
Seven on the floor of the sea Seven
And I roll Seven
Seven on the floor of the sea Seven

And I feel the perfect water
Washing over me

To flow inside the spiral tide
To drop my eyes like a bride and ride
Across the curve unmarked by borders
It waits for me like an orphaned daughter
A life A life of perfect order
The strange The strange and perfect water
A life A life of perfect order
The strange The strange and perfect water

A life
The strange
A life
The strange
