Change of time

I had a dream last night
I dreamt that I was swimming
And the stars up above
Directionless and drifting
Somewhere in the dark
Were the sirens and the thunder
And around me as I swam
The drifters who´d gone under
Time, love
Time, love
Time, love
It´s only a change of time
I had a dream last night
And rusting far below me
Battered hulls and broken hardships
Leviathan and Lonely
I was thirsty so I drank
And though it was salt water
There was something ‘bout the way
It tasted so familiar
Time, love
Time, love
Time, love
It´s only a change of time
The black clouds I´m hanging
This anchor I´m dragging
The sails of memory rip open in silence
We cut through the lowlands
All hands through the saltlands
The white caps of memory
Confusing and violent
I had a dream last night
And when I opened my eyes
Your shoulder blade, your spine
Were shorelines in the moon light
New worlds for the weary
New lands for the living
I could make it if I tried
I closed my eyes I kept on swimming
Time, love
Time, love
Time, love
It´s only a change of
Time, love
Time, love
Time, love
It´s only a change of
Time, love
Time, love
Time, love
It´s only a change of
Time, love
Time
Time, love
It´s only a change of
Time, love
Time, love
Time, love
It´s only a change of
Time, love
Time, love
Time, love
It´s only a change of time
(rough seas, they carry me wherever I go)
I dreamt that I was swimming
And the stars up above
Directionless and drifting
Somewhere in the dark
Were the sirens and the thunder
And around me as I swam
The drifters who´d gone under
Time, love
Time, love
Time, love
It´s only a change of time
I had a dream last night
And rusting far below me
Battered hulls and broken hardships
Leviathan and Lonely
I was thirsty so I drank
And though it was salt water
There was something ‘bout the way
It tasted so familiar
Time, love
Time, love
Time, love
It´s only a change of time
The black clouds I´m hanging
This anchor I´m dragging
The sails of memory rip open in silence
We cut through the lowlands
All hands through the saltlands
The white caps of memory
Confusing and violent
I had a dream last night
And when I opened my eyes
Your shoulder blade, your spine
Were shorelines in the moon light
New worlds for the weary
New lands for the living
I could make it if I tried
I closed my eyes I kept on swimming
Time, love
Time, love
Time, love
It´s only a change of
Time, love
Time, love
Time, love
It´s only a change of
Time, love
Time, love
Time, love
It´s only a change of
Time, love
Time
Time, love
It´s only a change of
Time, love
Time, love
Time, love
It´s only a change of
Time, love
Time, love
Time, love
It´s only a change of time
(rough seas, they carry me wherever I go)
