This is a song I wrote called "green to seafoam" intended to accompany previous entries "Life Vacation" and "Is there a place in our friendship for my moodiness?"
"green to seafoam"
lyrics and music by Arjune
It all started well
As we stepped on the boat
The waves licked the wood
and as Captain I stood
Singing yo ho ho
we’re ready to go
the wind might not last
“1st mate, hoist the mast”
Wench bring me my glass
and fill it half past
the trip will be long
we might not come home
Yo ho ho
We’re ready to go
Yo ho ho
We’re ready to go
I saw the sea change
Before mine own eyes
From green to seafoam
Color fades before my eyes
1st first mate screams,
"Captain, oh Captain,
Where have you been?
Oh where have you gone?"
The dark of my room
The warmth of my bed
The sway of the boat
My thoughts start to float
The green of the sea is
Nothing to me
The thoughts in my tree
They swim happily
Yo ho ho
Where did we go?
Yo ho ho
Where did we go?
From seafoam to green
Awake from the dream
The salt in my sky
The light in my eyes
Yo ho ho
Where did we go?
Yo ho ho
Where did we go?
