Lyrics (unofficial)

[rev. Aug. 23, 2013]

The boat goes out, surrender yours
It could be any day
The fishermen shout, approaching storm
It's just like yesterday
Sometimes I can't tell what I'm doin' here
Am I supposed to be a clown or a buccaneer
From the vaguest clue to the faintest idea
A Roman holiday

Surrender smiles, epiphany
It's almost every day
And the sea's in my bed
And the moon's in my head

We live in a house upon the hill
Its just a mile away
We look out to sea, dawn's early light
It chased the night away
Sometimes I can't tell if I'm you or me
Alone in this room with the moon and the sea
Listen to the space where she used to be
Another life away

Surrender smiles, epiphany
It's almost every day
And the sea's in my bed
And the moon's in my head

Surrender smiles, epiphany
It's almost every day
