squid/octopus lyrics
[squid 1]
[instrumental intro]
[verse]
i wish that you would set me free forever
oh, but these rings on my arms are too deeply burned…
oh, no, no, no, no, i can’t let you go
i can’t let you go
[squid 2]
[organ solo/saxophone solo]
[octopus]
[instrumental intro]
[intro]
i want to paint you long poems full of fire
you who i do not know
[verse 1]
now my mind is tested with love which
twists and wavers from side to side
and which some day soon you may see…
i want you to cascade
through ten thousand rainbows with me
and dredge mountains from the sea:
you who i now begin to know
[verse 2]
but emotion is pent up inside
too scared of dying again to live
and meanwhile i must endure
your red+copper hair screaming like a water+baby
black eyes stare from my ceiling…
you who i now truly know
[interlude]
[verse 3]
now i cannot see too clearly
and already my trellis stands bare
how can i break free of these overclinging arms
which entwine and enfold me
and reach to the clear blue sea?
i want you to know, but how can i tell you?
i want you to see but my own eyes are blind
[bridge]
the octopus now enfolds me
i know you too well…
i know you too well…
i know you too well…
[instrumental outro]
