The Shaky Hands - Whales Sing lyrics

You were bad but

do you feel it?

And in the hindsight

you don't see it

And it's a shame

you were forsaken

with the traps

set so well hidden

And I know all whales can sing



With the shouting

you hold me up again

If you're the highway

I'm the pavement

Through back door

from the existing

And all the wind blows

neverending

And I know all whales can sing



Cut all this out

We shall not be

turning lightly

into the wind

and never again

hear the song end

of the ocean



The trip is long but

you will prosper

you're not alone, boy

you have a father

and there's a lesson

they have given

and underwater

I can listen

And I know all whales can sing



There is enough for

when you come down

Into the water

you will hide out

for the changing

of what is sacred

Oh to the father

the hope that he will read it

And I know all whales can sing



Cut all this out

We shall not be

turning lightly

into the wind

and never again

hear the song end

of the ocean



I know all whales can sing

And I know all whales can sing!
