Lyrics

I have swum those raging seas
Washed up by an ocean who had tired of me
How I survive I will never know
This wreck's got a home and a whole lot of hope

I'm out on a beach, sat on a rock
Thinking of you and the love I've got
I saw the devil's servant. I sent her home
I said, "bring me your master. I don't want his dog."
I'm on fire. I'm full of a new desire
I'm full of love and new desire

I lit my fire; blew my conch. nobody comes
I built my boat from bamboo, but it sunk
I looked at the sky for vapour trails. nobody comes
I wrote your name on a tree
Along with the days this has taken you away from me

I'm out on a beach, eating my heart
Thinking of you and the love I got
I saw the devil's servant. I sent her home
I said, "bring me your master. I don't want his dog."
But, I'm on fire. I'm full of a new desire
I need somebody like you, a warm body
I ain't afraid to die
There you go
"?In't afraid to die."

I'm out on a beach, eating my heart
Thinking of you and the love I got
I saw the devil's serpent. I sent him home
I said, "bring me your master. I don't want his dog."
I'm out on a beach, sat on a rock
Thinking of you and the love I got
I saw the devil's servant. I sent her home
I said, "bring me your master. I don't want his dog."
I need somebody like you
