1
When I was seven
2
I asked my mother
3
To trip me to the bay
4
And put me on a ship
5
And lower me down
6
Lower me out of here
7
Because when I was seven
8
I wanted to live in a bathysphere
9
Between coral
10
Silent eel
11
Silver swordfish
12
I can't really feel or dream down here
13
And if the water should cut my line
14
And if the water should cut my line
15
Set me free
16
And if the water should cut my line
17
Set me free, I don't mind
18
I'll be the lost sailor, my home is the sea
19
When I was seven
20
My father said to me
21
"But you can't swim"
22
And I've never dreamed of the sea again
