undertow

about

recorded in Sandpiper Cove, Destin, Florida

lyrics

washed up with the seaweed
I was struggling to stand
I was helpless as a jellyfish
when you took me in your hand

the undertow
will carry you back out
you never had a doubt, no

and though the breaking waves will shake me
deep inside my core
I’ll be sea glass, baby
shape me up against the shore

the undertow
will carry you back out
you never had a doubt, no

could you show me how you turn yourself to water
like an ice angel slowly getting hotter

the undertow
will carry you back out
you never had a doubt, no, no, no

may never reach the destination
may never understand
been carried by the current
sea-swept inland
simply to dry up
and sink into the sand
