Would it help


Would it help
To be found
At the edge
Of the sea
If gathered kelp
Is all ye be
If gathered kelp
Detached from rock
Is all ye be
Is all ye be

Might a signal
Arrayed
At the edge
Of the sea
To warn of rock
And a watery bed
Warn of rock
And send you back
To the sleeping heart
Of the sea, sea, sea

You fools are borne
By the rolling sea
Beseeching waves
To carry thee
Beseeching waves
Like a spineless fish
As if waves
Were awish
Wish, wish
