Burial At Sea - Tucker Zimmerman

Lyrics by：Tucker Zimmerman

Composed by：Tucker Zimmerman

Produced by：Big Thief

Take me out to the edge of the sky

Fill me with laughter

And a lopsided smile

Roll back the waves

That cloud my eyes

I want to dance with

The whales for a while

Oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah

There's a message in a bottle

From fourteen hundred and ninety-two

Shipwrecked sailors on a rock

A stone's throw away from

The village they plundered

Our time is up no more shall we count

The clicks of the clock

Oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah

Beware beware with sea-** in her hair

A mermaid strums a haunted mandolin

She'll take you deeper into the maze

Past the point where you'll survive

By doing tricks with your chin

Oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah

Oh the sleepers of the deep

Sweep from shore to floor

Chances are slim

You'll come back the same

And if you wish to return to the shore

I'll teach the gentle Vikings

To remember your name

Oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah

So drain me away to the far-flung sea

Measure me with mystery

Weigh me with wonder

Slip me away between the sheets

Over the top and all the way under

Oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah

Oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah

Oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah

Oh yeah
