Ease Your Feet In The Sea

Belle And Sebastian

Ease you're feet off in the sea


My darling it's the place to be


Take your shoes off curl your toes


And I will frame this moment in time


Troubles come and troubles go


The trouble that we've come to know


Will stay with us till we get old


Will stay with us till somebody decides to go


Decides to go





Soberly, without regret, 1 make another sandwich


And I fill my face, 1 know that things have got to you


But what can 1 do?


Suddenly, without a warning


On a pale blue morning


You decide your time is wearing thin


A conscious choice to let yourself go dangling


Hovering


It's an emergency


There's no more "wait and see"





Maybe if I shut my eves


Your trouble will be split between us


People come and people go


You're scouring everybodies face


For some small flicker of the truth


To what it is that you are going through, my boy


I left you dry


The signs were clear that you were not going anywhere


Anywhere


Save for a falling down


Everything's going wrong





Later on, as I walked home


The plough was showing, and orion


1 could see the house where you lived


I could see the house where you gave


All your time and sanity to people


Then you waited for the people to acknowledge you


They spoke in turn


But their eyes would pass over you


Over you


Who's seeing you at all?


Who's seeing You at all?
