lyrics

If a picture paints a thousand words
then a song paints a thousand pictures
And if these seas could sing when the waves came in
a shoal of secrets would wash upon the shore

I’m the plummet and the rise of the bay’s mooring buoys
I’m the powdery sand dunes white
I’m the omen of bad luck and I curse all I touch
With my past that won’t pass away quickly enough

But I’ve learnt how to disappear without going anywhere
I’ve learnt how to disappear without going anywhere

One spring I slipped overboard without saying a word
And I ploughed down through the water like an anchor
I went to a dark address where I finally confessed
That though we went our different ways we had come to the same end

This is how you disappear without ever leaving
This is how you disappear without ever leaving

The Southerly calls and it’s pointing to the north
Beckoning that I follow
Am I the singer or the sung? Have I faith or have I none?
Love’s the fear now that I must swallow

Oh and this is how you disappear without going anywhere
This is how you disappear without going anywhere
