La Mer - Frameshift

I lie awake wondering who I am

My dreams don’t seem to make any sense

Imagination running wild

It can’t satisfy my need

Oceans taunt me

I’m a patron to the coast

Dark seas, cool breeze

Today the tide is low

And then suddenly

A shape has caught my eye

Calling me

Could not resist or pass it by

On the shore I found an answer

Buried in the sand, circles filled with treasure

I took it home to keep it safe

Little spiral in my hand

The stories you can tell

Never cease to captivate me

Just a simple shell

You came out of the sea

Now you belong to me

I hold it close

I know there are many more

It’s like a gallery

Down on the ocean floor

Shapes and patterns infinite

Spelling clues to history

Swept ashore

Could not resist or pass it by

On the shore I found an answer

Buried in the sand, circles filled with treasure

I took it home to keep it safe

Little spiral in my hand

The stories you can tell

Never cease to captivate me

Just a simple shell

You came out of the sea

Now you belong to me

Moved by the swells, currents will tell

Tell us your story

So many out there, no one just like my

Immortal coil keep on floating

On the shore I found an answer

Buried in the sand, circles filled with treasure

I took it home to keep it safe

Little spiral in my hand

The stories you can tell

Never cease to captivate me

Just a simple shell

You came out of the sea

Now you belong to me

I lie awake knowing who I am

My dreams now seem to make sense again
