Sea Song Lyrics - Robert Wyatt

You look different every time you come 

From the foam-crested brine 

Your skin shining softly in the moonlight 

Partly fish, partly porpoise, partly baby sperm whale 

Am I yours? Are you mine to play with? 

Joking apart, when you're drunk, you're terrific when you're drunk 

I like you mostly late at night, you're quite alright 

But I can't understand the different you in the morning 

When it's time to play at being human for a while please smile 

You'll be different in the spring, I know 

You're a seasonal beast like the starfish that drift in with the tide 

So until your your blood runs to meet the next full moon 

You're madness fits in nicely with my own 

Your lunacy fits neatly with my own, my very own 

We're not alone
