12 Deaf

[Chorus: Dave Okumu]

I was sleeping with the ocean

And flirting with the sea

And lo and behold, the time has come

And fear takes over me

I was sleeping with the ocean

And flirting with the sea

And lo and behold, the time has come

And fear takes over me

[Verse 1: Ghostpoet]

Maybe I'll never learn

Brain just blinded by what one sees, believe

Some day I know I'll burn, then yearn

For normal-type lives and white-washed walls and a mug of tea

I'm so predictable

Cards laid out, no sleight of hand

Via cheap cologne and soon-gone-hair

That moonlight stare just seems so here and now

[Chorus: Dave Okumu]

I was sleeping with the ocean

And flirting with the sea

And lo and behold, the time has come

And fear takes over me

I was sleeping with the ocean

And flirting with the sea

And lo and behold, the time has come

And fear takes over me

[Verse 2: Ghostpoet]

You could be anyone

I've won strange faces, now the love I seek

I embrace anyone

My love is cheap and unique and seeks a likely home

But don't tell anyone

They may not get my odd ways and seek to burn me out

But life's too short to quiver and I won't deliver a line

That swallows me whole

[Chorus: Dave Okumu]

I was sleeping with the ocean

And flirting with the sea

And lo and behold, the time has come

And fear takes over me

I was sleeping with the ocean

And flirting with the sea

And lo and behold, the time has come

And fear takes over me
