I'm ten feet under water
|
Standing in a sunken canoe
|
Looking up at the waterlillies
|
They're green and violet blue
|
Still the sun it finds
|
A place to light me
|
Still the sun it finds
|
That it's warm beside me.
|
|
Green and violet blue
|
No matter what you say no matter what
|
you do
|
I want to be the one and
|
Love is a Sign.
|
|
The letters that were writing
|
Baby they just break our hearts
|
And when we get back together again
|
There's just no time to start.
|
No time to restore
|
It's all on the ground
|
What you've been doing
|
Against what I've found.
|
And this is what I find
|
No matter what you say no matter what
|
you do
|
I want to be the one and
|
Love is a Sign.
|
|
I'm not a playboy or a poet
|
There's no cool water from the well
|
I wish you had a big house
|
And that your work would start to sell.
|
Wave after wave
|
Our tension and our tenderness.
|
Wave after wave
|
Our tension and our tenderness.
|
Green and violet blue
|
No matter what you say no matter what
|
you do
|
I want to be the one and
|
Love is a Sign.
|
|
I know I'll see you again
|
The world is too big or too small.
|
I won't be the madman then
|
It will be me that's come to call.
|
Me in freezing weather
|
Snow cuffs on my wrist.
|
You down by the river
|
London no longer exists.
|
This is what I find
|
No matter what you say no matter what
|
you do
|
I want to be the one and
|
Love is a Sign.
