It Came From The Sea lyrics

Oh, it came from the sea,
Yes it came from the sound,
The water is rising it covered my knees.

Hang on to the bow line,
We're all bearing down.
Oh, it came from the sea.

Lightning has shattered a hole in the night.
White waves have taken my family away.
From top of the mainsail, you pray and you plea,
Oh, it came from the sea.

La da da da diddy dum.
Steady wall of gold and green and sun.
La da da da diddy dum.
Daddy's gone to sea and now he's gone.

Oh, it came from the sea,
Yes it came from the sky.
Salt water rings on the lids of your eyes.

The whales will swim where the trees used to be.
Oh, it came from the sea.

Raise the sails tonight,
The sea's our home tonight,
All hands on tonight,
We all go down tonight.
