take to me like a child takes to water
and disappear beyond
the deep green sea
speak to me as a father to his daughter
and disappear beyond
the deep green sea
there is time enough for crying
when the road you're on leaves
to find it's own release
and there ain't no sense in hiding anymore
when you already know everyone you meet.
so i will say i will take it all from you my dear
ease in me like your holy other
like your only brother
like some siren from the sea
trace the lines around my face
and they will all lead back to you
take me any other place
every road will lead me back to you
take to me like a child takes to water
and never mind how deep we go
think of me like i hold the marks of slaughter
just like the only one beneath the deep green sea
and throw it all away...
take the saints down from the chapel walls
take the bell down from the choir loft
i will be there in the garden
i will wait for you
