| Josh Ritter – Change of Time Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
Part A: He thinks he is in a dream, with the Sirens in the distance, and floating dead bodies. Part B: He realized that below him is the now empty hull of a sunken ship. He tastes saltwater, it is strangely familiar. He has swallowed salt water before. Part C: He starts to remember what happened. He was sailing by the lowlands, and needing 'all hands' off the salt lands. Then a violent and confusing event- the sinking of his ship. The bodies around him were his shipmates. The hull below his own ship. Part D: He sees his lover across the chasm between the living and dead. She is unreachable like an undiscovered land. He closes his eyes, protraying the sleep of death. Chorus: He will be together with his love again someday. He's death only changes when they will be together again, not his love or presence. |
