Sleepy Sea of Indigo and Blue - Antje Duvekot

You were there

I dont know why

Maybe we were brothers

In another time

Among a hundred trains

And all those trite refrains

Somehow you let your train go by

I said ive never felt pain

I travel in submarines

Dont think i’d make much of a swimmer

So i live under the waves

Because you cannot sink

If you dont try to swim

But somehow i just let you in

And i dont know how you made it past my guards

You knew the secret of their hearts

So lay me down gently

Gather me to you

On a sleppy sea of indigo and blue

Sing me a song thats tender

And love will come to you

On a sleepy sea my love will come to you

You said i understand your sense of fear

The city’s made of timber and the flames are on the hill

But in a still born world, in a strange and troubled time

I will sing you lullabies

And i dont know what tomorrow has in store

But i will pin my heart to yours

So lay me down gently

Gather me to you

On a sleppy sea of indigo and blue

Sing me a song thats tender

And love will come to you

On a sleepy sea my love will come to you

Bridge

And at the crumbling of the hour, in her twilight evening gown

Over waters emerald green we’ll watch the silver sun go down
