city shanty band - runaway whale lyrics

Loading...

[chorus]
it was over for me
in the sea, in the sea
it was over for me, in the sea
said the runaway whale
in the mouth of the thames
i have swum from my own family

[verse 1]
it was harder for me
in the sea, in the sea
it was harder for me, in the sea
folks were always on my back
so i flipped and changed my tack
city look out london’s where i’m gonna be

[chorus]
it was over for me
in the sea, in the sea
it was over for me, in the sea
said the runaway whale
in the mouth of the thames
i have swum from my own family

[verse 2]
floating further away
from the sea, from the sea
floating further away, from the sea
as the narrow banks bore down
there was no room to turn around
sure the city was swallowing me
[chorus]
it was over for me
in the sea, in the sea
it was over for me, in the sea
said the runaway whale
in the mouth of the thames
i have swum from my own family

[bridge]
as i blew my last breath
oh the sea, oh the sea
as i died how i dreamed of the sea
oo+oo+oo+oo oo+oo+oo
oo+oo+oo+oo oo+oo+oo

[verse 3]
sinking city sunshine steers (oo+oo+oo+oo)
seaside’s far away from here
pray send news to my old family (oo+oo+oo)
city sinking sunshine steers (oo+oo+oo+oo)
seaside’s far away from here
pray send news to my old family (oo+oo+oo)

[chorus]
it was over for me
in the sea, in the sea
it was over for me, in the sea
said the runaway whale
in the mouth of the thames
i have swum from my own family
[outro]
i have swum from my own family
