Could save us, or take us for its own The danger that life should lead us in
My angel, could I have steered us clear?
Gone the light from her eyes
With the lives that we made
Just the two of us In the night, on the waves
Moving silent her lips
By the moon's only light
Sewing silver prayers In the blanket of night
The ocean that bears us from our home
Could save us, or take us for its own
The danger that life should lead us in
My angel, could I have steered us clear?
Paper cup of the boat
Heaving chest of the sea
Carry both of us, Or swallow her, swallow me
