lyrics

Open up your eyes
And follow the light
Shining through the giant leaves
Hanging from the top of the trees

Through the bushes, colourful
You break your way down to the beach
All the obstacles behind,
You catch your first glimpse of the sea

What it this in the sand?

Blow it, boy, blow
Until your lungs give up
Blow it, boy, blow
So that everyone shall hear
Hold it, boy, hold
It tightly in your hands
Softly, boy, soft
The sea murmurs in your ear

Shirt is torn from rapid motion
The wind musses up your hair
As you gaze upon the ocean
You think "Here we are, but where?"

Dig your feet into the white grains

Blow it, boy, blow
Until your lungs give up
Blow it, boy, blow
So that everyone shall hear
Hold it, boy, hold
It tightly in your hands
Softly, boy, soft
The sea murmurs in your ear

If it ever falls down
Things will change
If it ever falls down
Things will change
The king will lose his nautical crown
Respect gets lost within the sea

Bury it in the sands
Of time
