I came on a whim of nomadic flight
To abandon the dark, learn the ropes of the light
But even the vaguest notion
How do you convey the ocean
I reach and grasp to no avail
The fleeting tracks of my blue whale
And live to tell the tale
The longer I stand on the ocean shore
The further my feet sink into the floor
The waves are a cold refresher
The sun applies a bolder pressure
The rocks renewed by the minute hand
And I'm sinking deeper in the sand
Deeper in the sand
Deeper in the sand
The magnetic ocean drags my keel
It flows my toes and ebbs my heel
It scrubs the land spic and span
There's lots to see in vic and van
The harbor in to neverland
And I'm sinking deeper in the sand
Deeper in the sand
Deeper in the sand
Before you know you must learn
And before you learn you must wonder
And before you wonder, you must notice
And before you notice, you must be present
