Dive

diving deep you will see
heart grows gills
the Siren sings
shining scales of passion
manta ray mantras
soft white pearls of wisdom
open wide, open wide...
diving deep you will see
heart grows gills
the Siren sings
to reclaim the Vision
at the depths of her body of holy water
where the treasure lies...
the undercurrent of Creation
upwelling, upwelling...
upwelling a tidal wave
to crash ashore
sent to break the spell
sent to break the spell
diving deep you will see
heart grows gills
the Siren sings
she'll break the spell...

Oceanic Heart
05:59
|
|||
|
I was born of the sea
pure wild and free
raised by the sea lions
in an underwater Zion
and in the sea I grew strong
and my path did not take long
for I learned to commune with her in song
but of all the creatures I have come to know in the sea
there is still the One who always escapes me
I see him only in my wildest dreams
always passing me by on warm gulf streams
and its always the same
he can only whisper my name
as he dissapears again from whence he came...
(chorus)
and in the sea I wait for him
in the sea I wait for him
at the bottom of my oceanic heart
where I hope one day he'll find me there
I hope one day he'll come for me...
(verse)
and as time goes by
and I still swim alone
guarding Atlantis from my Mother Ocean's throne
and from my volcanic vantage point of view
suddenly I see him
emerging from the blue
Poseidon! I cry, screaming his name on high
for I know now my dream was not a lie...
(chorus)
and in the sea he swims near me
in the sea he swims near me
and from the bottom of my oceanic heart
I know this Love was meant for him
I know my love is meant for him...
(verse)
he watches me
but still shy in his shell
hiding behind a sea anenome
I smile his way
singing my Siren song
to show him that I am not the enemy
the sweetest sounds
echoing in his ears
a sonar that brings him to tears
now he swims my way
and I freeze in mid-harmony
for his eyes rival the sight
of the light of day
he takes his hands
running them through my curls
and I watch while his handsome heart unfurls...
(chorus)
and in the sea he swims with me
in the sea he swims with me
to the bottom of my oceanic heart
and from the bottom of my oceanic heart
I know this Love is just for him
I know my Love is just for him...

Breathing Underwater
05:17
|
|||
|
starfish fantasies
sunlight filters down
shining on our soft kelp bed
Love is made on rising reef...
his electric eel kisses
flooding through all my senses
our floating warm embrace
is anchored in the infinite depths...
down here we breathe underwater
where no one else can be...
Love is made on rising reef
in our holy dolphin dance
(repeat)
and down here we breathe underwater
where no one else can be...

Squall Line
03:48
|
|||
|
night falls on our seabed
blooming bioluminescent
suddenly the stars above are silenced by a storm cloud
the moonlight sky sonata
drowned out in a sudden gale-force wind...
oh no!
there's a squall line on the horizon
as the sea witch appears
wailing her wicked words
announcing her evil introduction
she sits astride a wild waterspout
and she's aiming it straight for my Poseidon...
oh no! no!
torn from my arms
in an ambush from above
he is sucked upward in its wake
and in a flash they disappear
on a passing lightning bolt
oh no! No!
he's gone! gone!
the grief breaks my tail
and I swim no more
I can swim no more
I clutch the reef as the storm rages on
to keep myself from sinking
down in the depths of despair...
salt tears and severed heart
I clutch the reef as the storm rages on
oh no! No!
he's gone! gone!
salt tears and severed heart
I clutch the reef as the storm rages on...
the grief breaks my heart
I can hold on no more
as I sink down
down in the depths of despair...

Merman Overboard
03:30
|
|||
|
the sea witch spits venom
terror tentacles that squeeze his throat
green algae eyes of envy
piercing through his abalone armour
her poison breeds his paralysis
muscle memory erased
he forgets his trident's power
falling into a sleeping sickness
her black pearl magic
conch shell curses
keep him tethered to her scaly side
deaf to his Siren's cries
deaf to his Siren's cry...
come back to me
just raise your trident and break free
come back to me
just raise your trident and break free
can you hear me, my Love?
oh will you hear me, my Love?
oh can he hear me, my Love?
oh will he hear me
my Love...

Depth Gauge

just how deep
are you willing to go?
just how much pressure
are you able to stand?
just how much darker
can it get?
keep going, and you will see
don't stop until you reach the bottom
just keep swimming
and the Light will be...
for we make our own Light
at the bottom of the sea
Heart Light, Heart Light
beating in biorythmic beams
Heart Light
with heart's light I see
the vision set free...
just how much Light
are you ready to receive?
just keep swimming
and you will see...

Breach
04:46
|
|||
|
drift out to sea
this storm in me
so lonely
oh where is he?
he cant hear me
but still I sing
its all I have
this voice in me...
the sound of Clear Light, comes from within
deep from within...
this voice in me
a symphonic sonar distress signal
straining hard for the echo of his essence
to see Truth with sound
crystal clear
breach, breach
rise and break through
the cloudocean blue
breach the surface
and rise above
breach the surface
and float on high...
float up to see
the Light in me
crystal clear...

starboard side
stars shine
the sea it glows
ooooh....
see it glow
ooooh...
starboard side
stars shine
the sea it glows, oooooh
see it glow, ooooh
the current flows, oooh
watch it flow, oooh
and heaven knows, oooh
the soul grows, oooh
my Heart glows, oooh
see it glow, oooh...

Break the Spell
04:10
|
|||
|
Queen Mother Ocean!
she'll break the spell
she'll break the spell...
the sea witch snarls in vain
as I sing the sacred sonar signal
the aqueous alchemy
the antidote of harmonic Love
Poseidon awakens
and holds his trident high
conducting the symphonic sea
as we rise above in harmony
we broke the spell
we broke the spell
diving deep you will see
white magic reigns
only Love remains
Queen Mother Ocean!

Poseidon's Passion
06:10
|
|||
|
his wave
my calm after the storm
his gentle power flowing through me
I sigh translucent at his touch
and from the wreckage of our sunken ship of dreams
we make our new home there
the return to nature
where our dream grows new life
as our waveforms collide
in submarine sensuality
and this Love is deep
so deep
as we float in infinite peace
this Love is deep
our Love is deep...

Riptide Rising
05:00
|
|||
|
the riptide of resurrection
it knows her name
it calls her name
rising high on the crest of redemption
to the place where sea meets sky...
the riptide of resurrection
it knows her name
it calls her name
diving deep to the bottom of the ocean
where the ground of being resides...
the riptide of resurrection
it knows my name
it calls my name
taking me far on the wave of salvation
I'll ride right where the pelican flies...
the riptide of resurrection
it knows my name
it calls my name
returning me to the womb of creation
I'm born again
wise, wild, and free...
there's a victory at sea today
for this Love lives in me
forever here to stay...
