LaMontagne, Ray - To The Sea Lyrics






I'll be waiting in the car
Don't forget the camera
If you wouldn't mind could you find my yellow shoes
I think they're under the stairs
Fa la la la la fa la

Through the hills and country side
Waving at the passers by
There's old tom in a coat and tie looking every ounce
The prince
He's [?] against the fence
Fa la la la la fa la
Fa la la la la fa la

We drove to the sea
Where the water is green
And the clouds and the blue through the shadows of me and you
The shells that we found in the sand
The moment we held in our hands
You were making me laugh, it was easier then, when
But then again

I'll be dozing over there
Cozy in my folding chair
Watching seabirds in the air as they circle the sun
[?] they suffer no one
Fa la la la la fa la
Fa la la la la fa la

We drove to the sea
Where the water is green
And the clouds and the blue through the shadows of me and you
The shells that we found in the sand
The moment we held in our hands
You were making me smile, it was easier then, when
But then again

All of the questions in my head
I'll paint them red
Put them to bed
All of the voices in my mind
Hurt and unkind
Leave them behind
Leave them behind

As we drove to the sea
And the water is green
And the clouds and the blue through the shadows of me and you
The shells that we found in the sand
The moment we held in our hands
You were making me laugh, it was easier then, when
But then again

I'll be waiting in the car
Don't forget the camera
If you wouldn't mind could you find my yellow shoes
I think they're under the stairs
Fa la la la la fa la
Fa la la la la fa la
Fa la la la la fa la
Fa la la la la fa la

  1. M.... P....

    Cat Stevens and Donovan.

  2. J.... R....

    Lovely song!

  3. V.... L....

    Ray is brilliant, always pushing, always poetic.

  4. J.... B....

    What a beautiful song.

  5. J.... B....

    Also, the line in refrain starting with "but" is followed by, except the last time, by the word "that". So, "but, that, 'then again.' "

  6. C.... B....

    I believe the line in verse 2 is 'his back up against the fence' :)

    C.... B....

    Cheryl Beatty I believe you are correct.

    C.... B....

    It's "bike up against the fence"
