Inga Liljestrom – THE RAIN AND THE SEA lyrics

Somewhere between the rain and the sea
That's where I last saw thee
With limping bones and breathing heavy
And carrying stones
In your pockets like jewels and finery
They told me my love
My love
You belonged to me

Somewhere between the rain and sea
I will come and find thee
And through your tangled hair of starfish and weeds i'll run my fingers my love, my love do you belong to me?

Speak to me of rain and seas
For that is where I know to find thee
With our hearts in our mouths
Too dry to bleed
My love, my love
Can we go back
To the rain and the sea

Its true, its true
I tried to own thee
Tried to hold you tight inside of me
With fists, clenched
And teeth gritted hard
I gave you over
To the rain and the sea
To the rain and the sea

Oh my love be gentle with me
For I know now love
Of the wild sea
And you're like me
You belong to the song
To the song
Of the rain and the sea

So with a mast and a boat
To carry us home
Our lives
Our loves
Our burdens and bones
We will sink
We will sink
With our stoney hearts
And rust away
Like old tin parts

Oh the rain and the sea
If only
If only I could belong
But we are not strong
We are one
With the rain and the sea
