Lyrics

Fathom

Took my nephew to see the ocean
He cried when saw the waves
But begged to stay
What did he see in those foaming breakers?
How small he was?
His dying day?
He held my hand in the shallow water
We waded in,
Began to play
Two tiny specks, now we were rising
We closed our eyes
Drifted away
Starlight floated up to meet us
Our bodies gone
They were in the way
Took my nephew to see the ocean
He cried when saw the waves
But begged to stay
