Lyrics
The trees talk in tongues
The wind sings in hymns
When the calm finally settles
The giant harks in
The stomach seizes up
The scalp red raw
My god is a gumtree built into a door
I'm watching two young boys
Draw infinity with a ball
Back and forth it goes
The point I'm yet to learn
Is it connection?
Are you learning how to fall?
Their God is that tennis ball
And the wind is just a tool
The wind is just a tool
A surfer in the sea
He is steered by the breeze
His sweat feeds the ocean
A waltz that gives to each
The saltiest of nectars
It cleans me through my skin
Our love is the ocean
And in God's soup we swim
In god's soup we swim
The rings of Saturn they sing
And the seashell dials them in
While the seagull holds the space
And invites his friends to sing...
All the harmonies our body's bring!
How our world is a dreidel, it spins!
All the harmonies our body's bring!
How our world is a dreidel, it spins!
I'm standing on the edge
You've washed my limbs before
A body that's familiar
The sound, the smell, it all
