[Instrumental]

[Verse 1]
Driftin' away from the shore into the open sea
I'll sleep on the ocean tonight with the moon at my feet
Carving your name with my hand, in the black oak tree
(Ooh, ooh)

[Instrumental break]

[Verse 2]
A king without kingdom or throne, nowhere to go?
Conquering islands of hope all alone
Eyes wide open, shutters closed, all you see is your ghost
(Ooh, ooh)

[Instrumental break]

[Verse 3]
Bruised by the size of the rain, coming back again
Long gone memories fade, old pictures remain
Speak slowly to me my dear and I'll swim to you
To you
(Ooh, ooh)
To you
(Ooh, ooh)
