The mountain, the sea and me

Lyrics

See his eyes, a brown-green sea.
Storms of feelings surge to me,
They wash and leave me dripping, cold and pale.

Things are floating in the swim;
Things I can't return to him.
A helpless, rising shriek becomes a wail.

And he knows my heart goes
To one who climbs the mountain near the shore.

Grey and formless is my mood.
Disembodied, in the nude,
I soar above the three:
The mountain and the sea
And me.
