Carry on inside of your heart   Under the brine you won't notice the dark   Can stone and steel and horses heels ever explain the way you feel   From Scapa flow to Rotherhithe, I felt the lapping of an ebbing tide      Oh the heavy water how it enfolds   The salt the spray the gorgeous undertow   Always, always, always the sea   Brilliantine mortality      Irrigate your heart until you know you're complete   And you're draped in kelp, below by 8,000 feet   My soul she cried I thought you'd died amid fumes of formaldehyde   You have been gone for so long I felt the lapping of an ebbing tide      Oh the heavy water how it enfolds   The salt the spray the gorgeous undertow   Always, always, always the sea   Brilliantine mortality
