I woke up from a dream   A white rose was floating to greet... the sea   Morning light, race me down   The wooden path, can't catch me now... the sea   Will you wade with me? You and me, all alone?   Wadin' in the sea   I grab your toes and know I understand   The symbol of the rose, it floats in my hand   On this great sea strand      Hang on to me and I'll hang on to you   Until the end, or until the day is through   And as we float, I'll wash away that part of me   That lures the devil in the deep blue sea      Will you always float here with me?   I don't wanna send second-hand notes   To you, my friend, about the sea   So we jump back into the party   And we wade out past the bar   I had not planned on going out this far      Hang on to me and I'll hang on to you   Until the end, or until the day is through   And as we float, I'll wash away that part of me   That lures the devil in the deep blue sea      'Cause the devil has a smile   And the devil has a smile   And it's thorny and it's wild   And it grows from deep inside   And you try to swim away   But the devil calls this play   Deep blue sea deep blue sea deep blue sea
