Savage Sea Lyrics

I was waiting for a mermaid to appear

Saying come little boy drown your fear

So young we're the new explorers

With the spirit of Doctor Livingston

We'll talk to the savage sea

It's the only direction for you and me



We won't die together in the desert

We'll escape from the men of prey

We'll smile like the French Resistance

And laugh at the guillotine



We'll talk to the savage sea

It's the only direction for you and me

Disapproved of life around them

So they created a world of their own

You're my last request before the firing squad

But bullets cannot penetrate the sea



We'll hide in the savage sea

It's the only direction for you and me

Why should heroes always die in battle

Take the violin

We're exiles
