Scouting the Shores of Longyear

The waves along the coastline
The faint flourescent light
The wind between my fingers
The albatross is on our side
The coffee mug with ice blooms
The open water charts
The squeaking of the seagulls
The satellites and stars

And while you're still asleep
I scout the shores on stumbling feet
No coastguard ever travels through these seas
And while you're still asleep
I scale these peaks
We really left our comfort zone Elise

The shapes of water creatures
Deep beneath the waves
The crisp scent of corrosion
The rescue ship has lost its way
The say we were the pampered
The spoilt and the decayed
We both know they were right but
Our boats are made for smaller waves

And while you're still asleep
I scout the shores on stumbling feet
No coastguard ever travels through these seas
And while you're still asleep
I scout the shores on stumbling feet
And while you're still asleep
I scale these peaks
And while you're still asleep
I scout the shores on stumbling feet
We really left our comfort zone Elise
