Lyrics - THE IMAGE OF THE SEA : CAPTAIN ZANZIBAR

the waitress won’t listen to me
though i beg, though i plead.
and the image of the sea
high above the windowsill
is of the water she and i may
never see. i wish i could
take her hand and leave.

i’ve burnt my candles
down to the ground.
i’m not the one you need
to have around.

please listen to me,
there’s so little left to dream
beyond this image of the sea

and i’m drowning in this city,
i’m drowning in this city
we can’t seem to leave.

an old man whispers
in this restaurant like the leaves
from a fallen tree. i can see
his lips make a wish,
but he can’t find a song to sing.

and the two young lovers
next to me sit like a pair
of beaten wings.
who knew you and i were
meant for such great things?

i’ve burnt my candles
down to the ground.
i’m not the one you need
to have around.

please listen to me,
there’s so little left to dream
beyond this image of the sea

and i’m drowning in this city,

i’m drowning in this city
we can’t seem to leave.

is that ash outside
or is that snow?
it’s much too dark
for us to know.

there’s so little left to dream,
i’m drowning in this image
i’m drowning in this image
i’m drowning in this image of the sea.
