Nickel Creek - From The Beach Lyrics

Nickel Creek Lyrics

"From The Beach"

Playing tag with a seagull
I'll be it
It for all time

Digging a moat around my castle
I'll dare another set
Set of waves to take us all home

Ocean ho, Sweet Devolver
Back into the sea

And when I breach, it's with a kelp crown
Amphitrite's heir
Heir for all time

With the current to lead me around
Don't need to know where
Only that I don't need to know

Merrily we roll, Sweet Devolver
Back into the sea

Chase
Build
Erase
Yield

Ticket
On the
Wind
Shield

Towel ho, Sweet Devolver
Life is but a dream

Is but a sea
And I don't think I'll ever leave
Since I've found myself
A little more
Naive
