"Sea Of Faith" lyrics

"Sea Of Faith"

Say sayonara darling
This time goodbye
No bon voyage
It's time to fly
I can see the breakdown coming
Like a twisted wreck
Let's save ourselves the sorrow
Before we hit the deck

From the high plains
To the border
All across the land
From the flying of the flag
To lovers kissing hands

You can cover me in roses
Put nickles on my eyes
There be no tomorrows
No more goodbyes
Sea of faith
Where did she go
Little diamonds
How you shine and glow
Looking at the future I don't know
I am just here to watch the river flow

A street full of whispers
Rings like a Chinese gong
A room full of would be's
Whose lives have gone wrong

The blues don't exist now
Just to cleanse your soul
They were made to wake you up
Not to dig a hole

You can cover me in roses
Put nickles on my eyes
There be no tomorrows
No more goodbyes
Sea of faith
Where did she go
Little diamonds
How you shine and glow
Looking at the future I don't know
I am just here to watch the river flow

Say sayonara darling
This time goodbye
No bon voyage
It's time to fly
I can see the breakdown coming
Like a twisted wreck
Let's save ourselves the sorrow
Before we hit the deck

It's something of a tragedy
It would make you weep
When you kiss your love goodnight
Now I see why lovers leap

You can cover me in roses
Put nickles on my eyes
There be no tomorrows
No more goodbyes
Sea of faith
Where did she go
Little diamonds
How you shine and glow
Looking at the future
I don't know
I am just here to watch
The river flow

Little diamonds
How you shine and glow
Looking at the future
I don't know
I am just here to watch
The river flow

Little diamonds
How you shine and glow
