What he doesn't realize is that you know- and you love him all the same, because his freckles stain him like stars and his skin is rough and smooth at the same time, because his hair blows in the wrong direction when he faces the wind, because he lights up when he sees you though he tries to hide it in the curl of his hands, the twisting of his wrist inside his pocket, the furrow which begins to deepen on his brow. You know now, that you are all he has, and that it feels like a responsibility or an obligation, but it isn't-only now you have the ocean at your feet and it almost feels like freedom. The shore for you has always been some kind of stigma, a tragedy on the fringe of the world, but now it is made of beginnings, a newness and calmness that mirrors your steady hands.

we're turning into regular people | the tumbled sea . o1
Instrumental
the sea and the rhythm | iron & wine . o2
Your hands they move like waves over me / Beneath the moon, tonight, we're the sea
fisherman's woman (acoustic) | emilíana torrini . o3
Working hard in the day / Your hands cracking from the cold and the salt
In the night when you go to bed / You try to sleep by listening to the boat breathing / The boat breathing
And the only thing / The only thing you can think of is me
sun against my eyes | colleen . o4
Instrumental
sea shells | sia . o5
Lost in the ocean / Through the window / We can see / Sand and biscuits / Cups of tea
All in letter bound in string / Life is slowly unraveling
bridges | anna ternheim . o6
I like the fact that you depend on me / In every possible way / When your eyes wander off desperately
That you never look straight / I enjoy when you hesitate / 'Cause I don't mind to wait / Somehow it's keeping me safe
the cold sea's embrace | patrick o'hearn . o7
Instrumental
cast away the clouds | rose melberg . o8
Take a look around / Seems we've cast away the cloud / To which we once were bound
Let's take this day and run / Our season has begun
ocean night song | laura veirs . o9
A handful of dream dust for my pirate / He can hear the pacific singing
The sea meets the light in his salt water eyes / Icy pictures of the water are captured in his frame
foreground | grizzly bear . 1o
Take on another shaft / Palms in the middle, hands in the middle / Walk out another road
Something is muffled, another chuckle / This is a foreground / It is a foreground
untitled for piano | the tumbled sea . 11
Instrumental
Zip file.
This mix is based on a fic I wrote, about the Doctor and Rose in the other universe, and how on they decide to live by the sea- finding a sailboat and circumnavigating the earth, trading in stars for waves but always having an adventure.
You can read it here if you like, or you can just enjoy the music!
Comments are awesome, especially if you're taking the zip. Individual songs are hosted on Box.net. Feel free to
friend the community for fanmix updates. :)
