[00:00:01] We Didn't Mean to Go to Sea - Declan O'Rourke

[00:00:01] Written by：Declan O'Rourke

[00:00:19] Along the quayside you were a light

[00:00:28] And I a reflection lay across the river and the night

[00:00:36] You were transfixed on me and I was mesmerised

[00:00:45] And names were whispered to and by you and I

[00:01:13] The tides began to steal away from morning light

[00:01:22] As night receded river walls seemed to grow high

[00:01:32] Then you climbed down into my arms and closed your eyes

[00:01:41] When we awoke we had been drifting

[00:01:55] We didn't mean to go to sea

[00:02:05] We didn't mean to drift away

[00:02:15] We never planned to up and leave

[00:02:25] But still the sea took us away

[00:02:34] We saw no lands on the horizon

[00:02:44] No distant shores along the fray

[00:02:54] Yet all the more we found ourselves

[00:03:04] When we got lost at sea that day

[00:03:33] Timbers creaked all else was quiet and relieved

[00:03:42] Except the infant waves that licked and lapped along the eaves

[00:03:52] It had to dawn on us our truth had been believed

[00:04:02] Beyond all lies and jealousy

[00:04:13] We sailed high wind half mast

[00:04:17] Due north towards the edge of our dreams grateful borders

[00:04:26] That matched our speed to stay ahead

[00:04:31] The afternoon was bleeding to death

[00:04:36] And soon the sky was racing red

[00:04:40] To see the stars remove their hats out of respect

[00:05:01] We didn't mean to go to sea

[00:05:11] We didn't mean to drift away

[00:05:21] We never planned to up and leave

[00:05:32] But still the sea took us away

[00:05:41] We saw no lands on the horizon

[00:05:51] No distant shores along the fray

[00:06:01] Yet all the more we found ourselves

[00:06:11] When we got lost at sea that day

[00:06:20] That day
