Lyrics La Mer - Frameshift

La Mer

I lie awake wondering who I am
My dreams don’t seem to make any sense
Imagination running wild
It can’t satisfy my need
Oceans taunt me
I’m a patron to the coast
Dark seas, cool breeze
Today the tide is low
And then suddenly
A shape has caught my eye
Calling me
Could not resist or pass it by
On the shore I found an answer
Buried in the sand, circles filled with treasure
I took it home to keep it safe
Little spiral in my hand
The stories you can tell
Never cease to captivate me
Just a simple shell
You came out of the sea
Now you belong to me
I hold it close
I know there are many more
It’s like a gallery
Down on the ocean floor
Shapes and patterns infinite
Spelling clues to history
Swept ashore
Could not resist or pass it by
On the shore I found an answer
Buried in the sand, circles filled with treasure
I took it home to keep it safe
Little spiral in my hand
The stories you can tell
Never cease to captivate me
Just a simple shell
You came out of the sea
Now you belong to me
Moved by the swells, currents will tell
Tell us your story
So many out there, no one just like my
Immortal coil keep on floating
On the shore I found an answer
Buried in the sand, circles filled with treasure
I took it home to keep it safe
Little spiral in my hand
The stories you can tell
Never cease to captivate me
Just a simple shell
You came out of the sea
Now you belong to me
I lie awake knowing who I am
My dreams now seem to make sense again
