Sea Legs

Sea Legs - The Shins

Of all the churning random hearts under the sun

Eventually fading into night

These two are opening now

As we lie I touch you wonderful alive

Girl if you're a seascape I'm a listing boat

For the thing carries every hope

I invest in a single life

The choice is yours to be loved

Come away from it empty of but us

'Cause when the dead moon rises again

Be no time to stall or protocol to hem us in

And when the dog slides underneath the train

There's no time or use in searching for the mutt's remains

Throw all the consequence aside

And a cheerless pyre we will set alight

Of all the intersecting lines in the sand

I routed a labyrinth to your lap

And never used a map sliding off the land

On an incidental tide and along the way you know they tried they tried

But we got sea legs and we're off tonight

They can't have that to which they've no right

You belong to a simpler time

I'm a victim to the impact of these words and this rhyme

'Cause when that dead moon rises again

There'll be no time to stall or protocol to hem us in

Darling when the dog slides open the door and where she go

There's no time or use in searching for the mutt's remains

Throw all consequence aside

And a cheerless pyre we will set alight
