Signpost in the Sea Lyrics

At first light, you looked so fragile
Felt that if I moved I'd break you
Something solid forming in the air around you
Lifts me off the ground, without a sound
Swallow me whole, body and soul

Lift me up and strip me naked
Take my mouth and take my eyes
Leave me where there are no shadows
Under starless, cloudless skies

And you say, there are no signposts in the sea

Lying empty, shell-like
In a storm that seems to pass round me
I can see the shadows of the men that passed here
Watch them take a stand

Take me hand
Swallow me whole
Body and soul

And you say, I am the captain of your ship
But you say, there are no signposts in the sea
