He went to sea for the day   He wanted to know what to say   When he's asked what he'd done   In the past to someone   That he loves endlessly   Now she's gone, so is he      I went to war every morning   I lost my way but now I'm following   What you said in my arms   What I read in the charms   That I love durably   Now it's dead and gone and I am free      I went to sleep for the daytime   I shut my eyes to the sunshine   Turned my head away from the noise   Bruise and drip decay of childish toys   That I loved arguably   All our labouring gone to seed      Went out to play for the evening   We wanted to hold onto the feeling   On the stretch in the sun   And our breathlessness as we run   To the beach endlessly   As the sun creeps up on the sea
