[Verse 1]

Now dissolve me

Two tabs on your tongue

A herd of shepherds to herd the sheep

Sleep now, my only one

Broken sweethearts, ah

Who sleep apart

Both still pine for the other's side spine

Spoon as sleep starts


[Pre-Chorus]

And pulse to pulse

Now, shush


[Chorus]

She makes the sound, the sound the sea makes

To calm me down


[Verse 2]

I am see-through

Soap sliver, you're so thin

As I begin rubbing lathers out

Your state worsens on my skin

And gold

Fatless finger to lip

One-two, three-four, hush


[Pre-Chorus]

And pulse to pulse

Now, shush


[Chorus]

She makes the sound, the sound the sea makes

To calm me down

She makes the sound, the sound the sea makes

I'm tired now


[Post-Chorus]

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh, oh


[Outro]

She makes the sound the sea makes

Knee-deep in the north

She makes the sound the sea makes

Knee-deep in the north

She makes the sound the sea makes

Knee-deep in the north

She makes the sound the sea makes

Knee-deep in the north

She makes the sound the sea makes

Knee-deep in the north

She makes the sound the sea makes

Knee-deep in the north

She makes the sound the sea makes

Knee-deep in the north

She makes the sound the sea makes

Knee-deep in the north sea
