Lyrics
The shifting sands drift by the rusted cans
with turtles hand - held by a factory man
what we like - is the sea - and what we love is love
and how we live is naturally - and how we breathe is easily - and how we speak is naturally -
dammed lies and zealots eyes for me
very wise but without eyes to see
say goodbye and walk away from me
I am the thief of melody - and the artist steals what he sees - arranging flowers - for summer showers - inside the rain - safe again
