Sean Connolly - On the Rocks
I played on the rocks today, the cold gray rushing water starts to rage
I walked on those sands today, the salt of seas unending, what a taste
Then it rained, I sunk in the sea today
(Chorus)
So mercy, won’t you mercy me? We don’t need to build the same thing
Mercy, won’t you mercy me? Have you ever been awake right through a daydream?
(Verse)
I played on the rocks today, an old man’s growing daughter comes of age
I walked on those sands today, the faults of a son upending, what a waste
(Bridge)
I wandered through a salty haze, where the love of a mother’s lifeline just won’t fade
And the shore kept the waves at bay
But the mist couldn’t mask dancing silhouettes inside my brain
Were those the shadows of my family and friends?
Lighthouses cuttin’ through the fog trying to show me the way
Tellin’ me I’m okay, I sunk in the sea today
(Chorus)
So mercy, won’t you mercy me? We don’t need to build the same thing
Mercy, won’t you mercy me? Have you ever been asleep right through a daydream?
Mercy, won’t you mercy me? We don’t need to build the same thing
Mercy, won’t you mercy me? Have you ever been awake right through a daydream?
(Outro)
Mercy, won’t you mercy me? Daydream, won't you come and awake me?
Mercy, won't you mercy me? Daydream, hope you're comin’ down with me
Mercy, won’t you mercy me? Daydream, won't you come and awake me?
Mercy, won't you mercy me? Mercy, won't you mercy me?
