Three Days At Sea (Three Lost Years) Lyrics

First day, I was lost at sea
I had nothing to eat
But I thought home was near
I found myself in an
Unfamiliar place
My first night
On an unfamiliar tide

Second day I woke up
Had almost forgotten
I had never thought to
Try on different coloured robes
And I was face down in the in the sand
And I was lucky to be alive
Lucky to have survived

And on the third day
I was weak so I
Collapsed on the beach
And I died of hunger
And when they found me
They saw how much that
I had changed, I had changed
I had

I have changed, I have
I have changed, I have
I have changed, I have
I have changed, I have

Indeed this song is so gorgeous I had to signup just to comment. I'd love to know what it meant to Dekker.

man, i think wronggirl's probably right, but i listen to this song and i just think of myself, shouting silently at the world, ya know? i've chnaged! i'm different! and then, other times, i think it's just me saying it to myself, telling myself that i'm different than i used to be, i'm not the same person. but regardless of that, everytime i listen to this song, i have an incredible feeling of melancholy, i get a case of the soudades. it's almost like a lament at times long past, things that are no more. i've changed, i wish i could go back to who i was, what i was. hmm, this is hard to cast my feelings on this song into form...

Am I allowed to feel surprised that there are no comments to this song yet? Simply effin' gorgeous; I tend to go into a sort of trance everytime it comes on the stereo or ol' headphones.

Delicately tragic...I'll just say that and skip the literal interpretation, whatever it may be.

I relate to this song so much. Absolutely amazing, and apparently underrated.
