|
I was waiting for a mermaid to appear |
|
Saying come little boy drown your fear |
|
So young we're the new explorers |
|
With the spirit of Doctor Livingston |
|
We'll talk to the savage sea |
|
It's the only direction for you and me |
|
|
|
We won't die together in the desert |
|
We'll escape from the men of prey |
|
We'll smile like the French Resistance |
|
And laugh at the guillotine |
|
|
|
We'll talk to the savage sea |
|
It's the only direction for you and me |
|
Disapproved of life around them |
|
So they created a world of their own |
|
You're my last request before the firing squad |
|
But bullets cannot penetrate the sea |
|
|
|
We'll hide in the savage sea |
|
It's the only direction for you and me |
|
Why should heroes always die in battle |
|
Take the violin |
|
We're exiles |
