Napoleon on the Bellerophon Lyrics

Lyric discussion by zachcondon 

Cover art for Napoleon on the Bellerophon lyrics by Beirut

i now have a slightly different interpretation:

A pain on the love sands I will run for them Round the sea With our love Floating But it's too late Sailing And you said that I was a liar And I'm lost somewhere on the inside Forever alone

And you never knew that I'd lied since And you then gave me your hand Can you see you're hiding? I am a little child And it's a proper landslide Can you sail To random seas With our love? Lost somewhere (I believe he also says 'I am a little child' at the same time as this) I'm waiting for you

My Interpretation
