Blue oyster cult - perfect water

Perfect Water
Blue Oyster Cult

[00:17]Perfect water - the dark wind braids the waves that grays birds.
[00:23]'Ware the tree. Is this our destiny?
[00:30]To join our hands at sea - and slowly sink, and slowly think:
[00:45]This is perfect water, passing over me.

[01:08]Do you know Jacques Cousteau when they said on the radio
[01:15]That he hears bells in random order, deep beneath the perfect water?
[01:23]Love! That is frightening, but still so inviting.
[01:37]To drown inside a sound that lay so far underground.
[01:45]And to think... And to think:
[01:49]This is perfect water, passing over me.

[02:04]To flow inside the spiral tide;
[02:07]To drown my eyes like a blind ride.
[02:11]And to cross the perils of black water -
[02:19]It waits for me like mother and daughter.
[02:26]A life of perfect order! A strange and perfect water!
[02:34]A life of perfect order! A strange and perfect water!

[03:04]Perfect water. I dream this dream within my deep and warm gulf stream.
[03:14]Where two blocks of ice melt into my hands like dice,
[03:21]And I roll seven on the floor of the sea!
[03:28]And I roll seven on the floor of the sea!
[03:36]And I feel the perfect water, washing over me.

[03:51]To flow inside the spiral tide;
[03:54]To drown my eyes like a blind ride.
[03:58]And to cross the perils of black water -
[04:05]It waits for me like mother and daughter.
[04:13]A life of perfect order! A strange and perfect water!
[04:20]A life of perfect order! A strange and perfect water!
[04:28]A life! A strange!
[04:35]A life! A strange!
