Jonathan Richman - The Wavelet Lyrics

Jonathan Richman Lyrics

"The Wavelet"

One day when I remove the mystery cork from this bottle
I will slip this whistful sigh back in the ocean
One day when I remove the mystery cork from this bottle
I will slip this whistful sigh back in the ocean

Oh, this wavelet has been tossed shore to shore
Rested a while, then come back for more

Come home little wavelet, you can sleep in my cradle
Cradle of calm, calm eternal
Come home little wavelet, you can sleep in my cradle
Cradle of calm, calm eternal

But I don't want to go to sleep now
I want to dance, I want to be
Yeah, but you'll never be happy, wavelet
Without me

Oh, come home little wavelet, we won't turn off your star
And you can dance with me on the banks of the far shore
