Irish Selection 2001:
Fe-Mail - "Undertow"
Undertow
You can't keep the sea from the shore and time is waiting
The bond that we share like the cycles of the moon
As you sailed away to trawl your distant oceans
Your promise to be true was locked within my soul
And dare to break this mirrored surface
And prepare to be lost in the turmoil below
You came back with a kiss
You came back with a knife
And I thought you spoke in sleeping
About another life
You came back with a smile
And you came back with a lie
And you're drowning in the undertow
I just may watch you die
I just may watch you die
Search out the point of aching and enjoying
A harvest of deceit sealed within your heart
I sense a lie through the tides of emotion
And mourn for the faith which now you break apart
You came back with a kiss
(It was tainted with poison)
You came back with a knife
(You live or you turn)
And I thought you spoke in sleeping
(The tears went onto you)
About another life
(I know how you lied and you lied and you)
You came back with a smile
(The ship won't stop sinking)
And you came back with a lie
(And it feels like a surprise)
And you're drowning in the undertow
(You're caught in the undertow)
I just may watch you die
(And you came back with a kiss)
You came back with a kiss
You came back with a lie
And I thought you spoke in sleeping
About another life
(And you came back with a smile)
And you came back with a smile
And you came back with a lie
And you're drowning in the undertow
Oh, I just may watch you die
I juѕt may wаtch you die
