Hello Seattle, I am a mountaineer
In the hills and highlands
I fall asleep in hospital parking lots
And awake in your mouthHello Seattle, I am a manta ray
Deep beneath the blue waves
I'll crawl the sandy bottom of Puget Sound
And construct a summer homeHello Seattle, I am the crescent moon
Shining down on your face
I will disguise myself as a sleeping pill
And descend inside of youHello Seattle, I am a cold seahorse
Feeling warm in your sand
I sing about the tide and the ocean surf
Rolling in the evening breezeHello Seattle, I am an albatross
On the docks and your boats
I sail above your inlets and interstates
Through the rain and open windHello Seattle, I am an old lighthouse
Throwing beams of bright lights
Red in the morning, blue in the evening sun
Taking heed from everyoneHello Seattle, I am a mountaineer
In the hills and highlands
I fall asleep in hospital parking lotsTake me above your light
Carry me through the night
Hold me secure in flight
Sing me to sleep tonightTake me above your light
Carry me through the night
Hold me secure in flight
Sing me to sleep tonight
