Oceania (SACD Stereo)

Oceania - Björk (比约克)

One breath away from mother Oceania

Your nimble feet make prints in my sands

You have done good for yourselves

Since you left my wet embrace and crawled ashore

Every boy is a snake is a lily

Every pearl is a lynx is a girl

Sweet like harmony made into flesh

You dance by my side

Children sublime

You show me continents

I see islands

You count the centuries

I blink my eyes

Hawks and sparrows race in my waters

Stingrays are floating across the sky

Little ones my sons and my daughters

Your sweat is salty

I am why

I am why

I am why

Your sweat is salty

I am why

I am why

I am why
