lyrics

i'll no longer linger further
there's a possibility of maybe
heading out
and floating away

we've got some money in our tube socks
got an urge to leave without a thought
of tomorrow or the next day
we're searching for the place where skies are grey

where the waves crash on the shoreline
singing salty in the morning
the ocean heaves its lungs
and curls its tongues
we can find our own damn island
sit together in the silence
float from place to place
a driftwood chase

there must be something better out there
than this desert of concrete that goes nowhere
i'm not looking for an oasis
i just want to be near the churning blue abyss

where the waves crash on the shoreline
singing salty in the morning
the ocean heaves its lungs
and curls its tongues
we can find our own damn island
sit together in the silence
float from place to place
a driftwood chase

shake off that smog haze
toss your worries to the waves
pin a yellow wildflower to your sweater bouquet
the weather is so perfect
the sun is away
the rocky coast is calling
and the sea foam in the bay
take my hand, we're going on a driftwood chase

where the waves crash on the shoreline
singing salty in the morning
the ocean heaves its lungs
and curls its tongues
we can find our own damn island
sit together in the silence
float from place to place
a driftwood chase
