Buried in the Waves

Oh the weather and wind she poured my drink

Stumbled 'neith the stars home

Couldn't find no love from the angels above nor the devil down below

Through this sorrow I learned to borrow the song from the blackest crow

Through the wind and the hail we fumbled and fell

We're steady as we go

Steady as we go

And these endless fall end days forgive that saving sea

And the love of a girl, she's holding precious pearls

Buried in the waves

Buried in the waves

Well the hurricane came and borrowed my name

Stolen, she clipped my wings

Neither the rich nor the poor couldn't find no cure for these sort of things

We move along like a bedtime song

Quiet and holy and slow

We tossed our backs, we tightened our straps

We're steady as we go

Steady as we go

Alright, okay, now I know

Here in the hands of the hand that throw the bones

Oh, the water she's hiding the only one who knows

Oh she will swallow, swallow, swallow us whole

Now the hills, they're ghosts, so haunted now

We found comfort near the firelight

The stories we told, they turned us cold and our fingers white

Yeah we're lost, we're lost and flame

Made a map from the power lines

The city down below with the factory smoke, the world changed

We're steady as we came

And those endless fall end days forgive that saving sea

And the love of a girl, she's holding precious pearls

Buried in the waves

Buried in

Well alright, okay, now I know

Here in the hands of the hand that throw the bones

Oh, the water she's hiding the only one who knows

Oh she will swallow, swallow, swallow us whole

She will swallow, swallow, swallow us whole

She will swallow, swallow, swallow us whole
