Sing For The Submarine
|
|
It feels in dreams
|
That everything is there for you
|
The city breathes and pulses
|
It's for you electron blue
|
|
I knew that you could see right through it
|
So this is where I give in to the machine
|
Lift up your voice feel gravity's pull
|
Drown out the siren's ring (or silent dream)
|
|
Oh...
|
|
It's all here where I keep it
|
It's all in the submarine
|
It's all a lot less frightening
|
than you would have had it be
|
But that's the good news my darling
|
It is what it's going to be
|
So sing, sing for the submarine
|
|
I tried to explain how it all begins
|
How its all destroyed and built again
|
I knew that you could not believe me
|
But now you're here and it's different
|
How the light shines in your eyes
|
In every second or situ
|
It's then that I realised
|
That the world as we know it
|
The High speed train
|
We'll pick it all up and start again
|
|
It's all here where I keep it
|
It's all in the submarine
|
It's all a lot less frightening
|
than you would have had it be
|
But that's the good news my darling
|
It is what it's going to be
|
So sing, sing for the submarine
|
|
The city did not collapse in a shudder
|
The rain it never came
|
At least my confessions made you laugh
|
I know it's a little crazed
|
But these dreams...
|
they seem so real to me
|
|
It's all here where I keep it
|
It's all in the submarine
|
It's all a lot less frightening
|
than you would have had it be
|
But that's the good news my darling
|
It is what it's going to be
|
So sing, sing for the submarine
|
|
So this is where you trust me
|
And this where it begins
|
It's all a lot less frightening
|
Your tear you let it in
|
Tyrel and his mechanical owl
|
A moth disguised as a leaf...
|
Don't tell me what tomorrow brings
|
Climb into the hidden machine and
|
sing sing sing sing sing sing
|
sing sing for the submarine
|
