From Here You Can Almost See The Sea Lyrics

by David Gray

Come the weekend
We'll be long gone, baby
Just like the old days
Letting the world flow through me

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e60887-david_gray~from_here_you_can_almost_see_the_sea_lyrics.html ]
Just a parasite in the line
I'm smoking, killing the time
I lost a piece of twine
What use is sympathy?

From here you can almost see the sea

If you would hold still
Make a clean incision
And we can sit back and watch the demolition
Little puppy dog in a box
Somebody's picking the locks
It's wandered down from the socks
Here comes the cavalry

From here you can almost see the sea

Just another fool in the line
Just a parasite in the line

I dream of high clouds
Flush with the light of daybreak
I'm gonna dive in
To waters so cold it makes your bones ache
Fingers, knees, and knuckles scraped
Our love a rubbish heap
The piece of cardboard taped up where the bedroom windowpane used to be

From here you can almost see the sea.

Just another fool in the line
Just a parasite in the line

I saw a film once
Where all the air holes froze up
A killer whale swam
Under the blue ice to the hard sky
