[00:17.62]Perfect water - the dark wind braids the waves that grays birds.
[00:23.96]'Ware the tree. Is this our destiny?
[00:29.79]
[00:30.54]To join our hands at sea - and slowly sink, and slowly think:
[00:42.82]
[00:45.76]This is perfect water, passing over me.
[00:51.65]
[01:08.86]Do you know Jacques Cousteau when they said on the radio
[01:15.12]That he hears bells in random order, deep beneath the perfect water?
[01:22.40]
[01:23.24]Love! That is frightening, but still so inviting.
[01:35.46]
[01:37.84]To drown inside a sound that lay so far underground.
[01:45.53]And to think... And to think:
[01:48.34]
[01:49.40]This is perfect water, passing over me.
[01:55.46]
[02:04.15]To flow inside the spiral tide;
[02:07.90]To drown my eyes like a blind ride.
[02:11.59]And to cross the perils of black water
[02:15.91]
[02:18.88]It waits for me like mother and daughter.
[02:22.45]
[02:26.26]A life of perfect order! A strange and perfect water!
[02:33.38]
[02:34.07]A life of perfect order! A strange and perfect water!
[02:41.07]
[03:04.26]Perfect water. I dream this dream within my deep and warm gulf stream.
[03:12.70]
[03:13.51]Where two blocks of ice melt into my hands like dice,
[03:21.07]And I roll seven on the floor of the sea!
[03:25.94]
[03:28.13]And I roll seven on the floor of the sea!
[03:33.39]
[03:35.57]And I feel the perfect water, washing over me.
[03:41.83]
[03:50.77]To flow inside the spiral tide;
[03:54.46]To drown my eyes like a blind ride.
[03:58.15]And to cross the perils of black water
[04:02.02]
[04:05.52]It waits for me like mother and daughter.
[04:08.83]
[04:12.98]A life of perfect order! A strange and perfect water!
[04:19.76]
[04:20.57]A life of perfect order! A strange and perfect water!
[04:27.20]
[04:28.01]A life! A strange!
[04:33.45]
[04:34.69]A life! A strange!
