would you believe me if i said that i was lying
could you concieve me to be misled
you are careful with me as i am careless
when i hand the key to you i've still got too many keys
and when i look at you in the blue summer shade
i can almost see my own face in the chain of reaction
that's when you lead me down to the sea
under the water the shadows wait patiently
'there are signs here' you whisper in my ear
but i won't listen to you till your words are clear
for you are naked tonight underneath your pose
you are hopeless and divine and everybody knows
that's where you leave me down by the sea
under the water green shadows wait patiently
say it's not true dear what i begin to fear
we are helpless to defy and engineer
for if i look at you in the blue summer shade
i can almost find my own way to the sauce of all of joy
but i am rule bound and still under instruction
so i will murder my pride and linger on my sin
that's where you left me down by the sea
under the water the shadows wait patiently
