Change of Time

I had a dream last night

I dreamt that I was swimming

And the stars up above

Directionless and drifting

Somewhere in the dark

Were the sirens and the thunder

And around me as I swam

The drifters who'd gone under

Time, Love

Time, Love

Time, Love

It's only a change of time

♪

I had a dream last night

And rusting far below me

Battered hulls and broken hardships

Leviathan and lonely

I was thirsty so I drank

And though it was salt water

There was something 'bout the way

It tasted so familiar

♪

The black clouds I'm hanging

♪

This anchor I'm dragging

The sails of memory rip open in silence

We cut through the lowlands

All hands through the saltlands

The white caps of memory

Confusing and violent

♪

I had a dream last night

And when I opened my eyes

Your shoulder blade, your spine

Were shorelines in the moonlight

New worlds for the weary

New lands for the living

I could make it if I tried

I closed my eyes I kept on swimming
