The Myth Testo

Testo The Myth

When the seabirds come
To close my eyes and leave my body behind
When the time is come
To lift this worried weight from my spine

I want to bathe in amber by a quiet bay
I want to feel the water on my naked legs
The salt drying on my skin

When the seabirds come
And they will know the names of everyone I loved
Lemons on a lemon tree slowly drying up
It’ll be alright

I would sing for their lives
I would sing for their lives
If I knew the words

When the seabirds come
Ships in an orange sky

And birds of brilliant white fly low to talk to me
Remind me of the child who I used to be
Running on tiptoe

I would sing for my life
I would sing for my life
If I knew the words
