The Surf Talks

(album: One Long Year - 2000)

Oooh I love you
Giggle giggle
The surf talks
Do you love me too?

If the surf could talk, I know she'd ask
"do you think you're equal to the task?"
If the surf could talk, she'd say
"beware I love you"

So I'd answer very carefully
And I'd ask if she'd be there for me
And the surf says "always
Beware I love you"

The surf says "I want you like you want me
Am I in you? are you in me?
Tell me"

The surf talks
And it knows what to say
The surf talks
I must learn to obey
The gun cocks, the clock stops, the earth rocks, the surf talks
The surf talks
Puts it's tongue on my skin
The surf talks

While it's sucking me in
The door locks and unlocks, the veil drops, the surf talks

She has promised me a beach of pearls
And an endless wave, a perfect curl
And she tells me always
"beware I love you"

She will place the world inside my hand
She will touch the soul of every man
She will take my message
"I'm here to love you"

The surf says "I want you here inside me
Am I in you? are you in me?
Tell me"

We are standing on a beach of pearls
We are riding deep inside the curl
And everybody all around the world
Must surrender when your flag unfurls

We are standing on a beach of pearls
We are riding deep inside the curl
And everybody all around the world
Will be dancing in the sea.
