Cat Empire Salt Water Lyrics

Salt Water Lyrics

I've got the clouds on a string

That I pull with my little finger
elegantly

What is this oh what could this strange feeling be

It
feels like all my holidays when my father used to say:

'Let's go down to
the beach'

And we'd go down to the beach

My little sisters and
me

Sometimes a man can feel like he is just a puppet

And the wind
blows him here and blows him there

But when I kiss you my dear

I
feel like a buccaneer

And water makes its music everywhere



[Chorus:]

Saltwater

Oh how I miss your misty kisses

Saltwater

Oh what expression is this

Is this?



I've
got the sky in my eyes

As I lie on my back in the deep blue sea

What is this oh what could this strange feeling be?

It feels like:

It feels like:

It feels like:

I don't know what it feels like

But it feels right

Sometimes a man is like an icecream in a desert

And he wonders what is it we seek?

Like water runs through your
fingers

Memories rise up from the deep.
