Seas Too Far To Reach Lyrics

The ladies in my dream - so obliging
They come on down to do the things I need
Whether skies are calm or cut apart by lightning
They're always there to minister to me

And at break of dawn, they're sweetly shining
Or at quiet of midnight, cold and dim
They say "don't harm him"
And when I wake just as their eyes are crying
I see that bed and I just want to climb back in
But let's gather up your friends and drive up to that country inn
We can stay there, feeling water warmly wash across our skin
Giving back all of our tears so that we can cry them again

You want to tell your dad you can't believe he's dying
But let's just walk on down the hall and shut our mouths
The AM radio is broken down and crying
As on this hour drive we're silent to ourselves

Let's go back up to your house, and take our clothes off
And just push and pull ourselves until we're deep inside of sleep
And with your body next to me, its sleepy sighing
Sounds like waves upon a sea too far to reach
But I'll gather up my men and try to sail on it again
And we'll walk and quietly talk all through the country of your skin
Made up of pieces of the places that you've dreamed and that you've been
And we will sleep outside in tents upon this unfamiliar land
In the morning we'll awake, yeah, as a foreign dawning breaks
My men and I will all awake
Let's try again
