Sean Connolly - Whale Songs

To Rate
(Verse)
Even if you think you know me, it don’t mean a thing
You’ve just befriended the part of me that I let you see
Even if you think you’ve outgrown me, I’ll tend to disagree
You’ve just discarded the part of me that still wants to wait and see
If this shit’s meant to be, if it’s all made for me

(Chorus)
But I’ll wail here for a thousand nights, until you heed my call
I’ll wade here through outstanding tides, watch me crest and fall
But I’ll wear my suffering on my sleeves, the smoothest sailor of all
And I’ll wait here through a million fights, until you hear my song

(Bridge)
But they just wanna bury you down, you know
They all just wanna bury you down, you know
They wanna bury you down, you know
But I’d be buried with you baby, I know
But you can’t force my eyes to see you, you can’t make my eyes shine
You will never force my eyes to meet you, you will never know just what I hide

But they just wanna bury you down, you know
They all just wanna bury you down, you know
They just wanna bury you down, you know
But I’d be buried with you baby, I know
But you can’t force my eyes to see you, you can’t make my eyes shine
You will never force my eyes to greet you, you will never know just what I hide

(Verse)
Even if you think you know me, it don’t mean a thing
You’ve just befriended the part of me that I let you see
You might think you’ve outgrown me, but I’ll disagree
You’ve discarded the part of me that still wants to wait and see
If this shit’s meant to be, if it’s all made for me

(Chorus)
But I’ll wail here for a thousand nights, ‘til you heed my call
I’ll wade here through outstanding tides, watch me crest and fall
But I’ll wear my suffering on my sleeves, the smoothest sailor of all
And I’ll wait here through a million fights, ‘til you hear my song
