Great Big Sea was playing in my ears today and I had a moment of clarity with one particular song, Sea of no Cares. It starts off like this...
When you're in love, there's no time and no space
There's a permanent smile on your face
Your friends all complain that you're going insane
But the truth is they're just afraid
Chorus
Hey somewhere,
you threw your fear in the Sea of No Cares
Hey somewhere,
you threw your fear in the Sea of No Cares
When you decide that what counts is inside
Your friends all say it's a lie
But there's no brighter light than the look in her eyes
When you're walking her home through the night
Chorus
Bridge
Let your self go with the tide
There's an angel by your side
Tonight
Back at the bar getting cynically stoned
Your friends are drinking alone
But it's funny, they don't even cross your mind
When she asks you into her home
Chorus x2
blackpaladin, thank you again for introducing me to GBS. They are absolutely great and I love it when I find special songs like this. ~_^
