lyrics

The stars look down
And our heads look up
The heart gets thin
While the skin gets tough
We wave our faults
Like a tree waves leaves
And the waves grow wild
On the wine-dark sea

Wine-dark sea
wine-dark sea
Wide and deep and uneasy
There is no sail
there is no breeze
You just slip your oars into
The wine-dark sea

Each kiss, each hat
Each tit for tat
The night it walks
And the day it naps
We drop our dreams
And we hope they don’t sink
Like a stone anchor
In the wine-dark sea

For each door that locks
There’s a cursed lost key
For each blasphemy
A whole other wine-dark sea
