[00:00.04] |
This old mountainside where we used to reside |
[00:04.75] |
Is slowly recalling the things we discovered inside |
[00:13.28] |
Oh, the crystal caves |
[00:16.77] |
We shed both our jackets and I hammered brackets |
[00:21.58] |
From old metal chairs to the walls for a crude set of stairs |
[00:30.31] |
To lead us down |
[00:33.25] |
And you tied a rope to the steepening slope |
[00:37.94] |
A jerry-rigged harness so we could descend in the dark |
[00:46.72] |
But the tide came in |
[00:49.60] |
And we found ourselves in the sea, |
[03:01.66][00:54.53] |
Deep underwater we both found that we could still breathe |
[03:07.95][01:00.76] |
So we spent the day submerged |
[03:15.33][01:08.29] |
And we swam the evening away |
[01:28.60] |
The water was clear like the pure atmosphere |
[01:34.67] |
As we kicked and fluttered through caverns all cluttered with age |
[01:43.12] |
In the afterglow |
[01:46.59] |
We swam hand in hand over white satin sand |
[01:50.93] |
And you left a ribbon to honor the pale gibbon moon |
[01:59.18] |
But that was years ago... |
[02:06.66] |
And we never came up for air down there |
[02:16.65] |
We can go anywhere |
[02:23.24] |
The old world was dying while we took off flying |
[02:28.75] |
Like peregrine falcons beneath the transparent blue waves |
[02:36.88] |
Far below the surf |
[02:40.01] |
And we spent the hours with submarine flowers |
[02:45.03] |
I knew I'd remember that day in November as we felt alive again |
[02:56.80] |
'Cause we found ourselves in the sea, |
[03:25.13] |
We swam the evening away |
