lyrics

Sea and sand line the borders of the mind
An invisible fence is there to keep us in, I’m told
Wave your hand, show a big and shiny smile
Send a bunch of yellow roses, mint and marigold

Big white clouds are the messengers of thoughts
We send them up with little notes and things that don’t resemble us at all
Then we wait with a cup to catch the drops
Drink it up as if your life depends on spill-fall

Every once in a while we think we hear a far seagull taking on the wind

We hear it calling, crying, falling
We hear it sighing, trying, diving
And then we keep on going, sending clouds
