Ocean

Velvet Underground

Here comes the ocean

and the waves down by the sea

Here comes the ocean

and the waves where have they been



Silver and black lit night,

here's to a stealer's night

an empty splendid castle

Glowering alone at night,

the princess has had a fight

madness seeks out a lover



And here come the waves

down by the shore

Washing the soul of the body

that comes form the depth of the sea



Here comes the ocean

and the waves down by the sea

Here comes the ocean

and the waves where have they been



Don't swim tonight my love,

the tide is out my love

Malcolm's curse haunts our family

Odious loud and rich,

ruler of filthy seas

revel in heaven's justice



And here come the waves

and save for a scream

There's much like a song

to be heard in the wind

that blows by the sea

Like the wind



Here come the waves

Here come the waves

Here come the waves

Here come the waves
