La Mer Lyrics

[Music: LaBrie/Pauly]
[Lyrics: Cash/Pauly]I lie awake wondering who I am
My dreams don't seem to make any sense
Imagination running wild - it can't satisfy my needOceans taunt me - I'm a patron to the coast
Dark seas, cool breeze - today the tide is lowAnd then suddenly a shape has caught my eye
Calling me - could not resist or pass it byOn the shore I found an answer
Buried in the sand, circles filled with treasure
I took it home to keep it safe
Little spiral in my hand
The stories you can tell
Never cease to captivate me
Just a simple shell
You came out of the sea
Now you belong to meI hold it close - I know there are many more
It's like a gallery - down on the ocean floor
Shapes and patterns infinite - spelling clues to historySwept ashore - could not resist or pass it byOn the shore I found an answer
Buried in the sand, circles filled with treasure
I took it home to keep it safe

Little spiral in my hand
The stories you can tell
Never cease to captivate me
Just a simple shell
You came out of the sea
Now you belong to meMoved by the swells
Currents will tell
Tell us you story
So many out there
No one just like my
Immortal coil keep on floatingOn the shore I found an answer
Buried in the sand, circles filled with treasure
I took it home to keep it safe
Little spiral in my hand
The stories you can tell
Never cease to captivate me
Just a simple shell
You came out of the sea
Now you belong to meI lie awake knowing who I am
My dreams now seem to make sense again
