Queen of the Sea (Redux)
When I look out to sea
Those brown eyes stare back at me
When I walk to the water
You try to take me farther
When I get too deep
You let go of me
When I lose my breath
I know there's nothin' left
You've got ships in your stomach
You've got bones in your teeth
You've got blood on your hands
You got sand on your feet
You suck the lives out of your lovers
Like you sucked the life from me
Now I know I can't recover from my lover
The queen of the sea
Her love is like the sweetest wine
Her touch will drive you straight out of your mind
Her kiss is like the ocean floor
You'll miss solid ground like never before
She breaks hearts like waves
She takes everything that you thought you once could save
She'll turn your heart to stone
And as soon as she's freed you well she's gonna leave you
To sink to the bottom alone
I can see her body shining
Dark eyes like empty islands
I'm drowning and I can't swim
She's going down and the tide
The tide's coming in
You've got ships in your stomach
You've got bones in your teeth
You've got blood on your hands
You got sand on your feet
You suck the lives out of your lovers
Like you sucked the life from me
Now I know I can't recover from my lover
Said I know I can't recover from my lover
Said I know I can't recover from my lover
The queen of the sea
Those brown eyes stare back at me
When I walk to the water
You try to take me farther
When I get too deep
You let go of me
When I lose my breath
I know there's nothin' left
You've got ships in your stomach
You've got bones in your teeth
You've got blood on your hands
You got sand on your feet
You suck the lives out of your lovers
Like you sucked the life from me
Now I know I can't recover from my lover
The queen of the sea
Her love is like the sweetest wine
Her touch will drive you straight out of your mind
Her kiss is like the ocean floor
You'll miss solid ground like never before
She breaks hearts like waves
She takes everything that you thought you once could save
She'll turn your heart to stone
And as soon as she's freed you well she's gonna leave you
To sink to the bottom alone
I can see her body shining
Dark eyes like empty islands
I'm drowning and I can't swim
She's going down and the tide
The tide's coming in
You've got ships in your stomach
You've got bones in your teeth
You've got blood on your hands
You got sand on your feet
You suck the lives out of your lovers
Like you sucked the life from me
Now I know I can't recover from my lover
Said I know I can't recover from my lover
Said I know I can't recover from my lover
The queen of the sea
