Roches - Maid Of The Seas lyrics

rate me

I wanted to take your face in my hands and kiss you on the mouth<br />

At the funeral<br />

There was a quake in the place where love demands to be noticed and found out<br />

Making you beautiful<br />

I turned myself away from you in shame<br />

Wanting these sensations to go back from where they came<br />

When the Maid of the Seas whispered to me in the breeze<br />

She said sex is the opposite of death<br />

It's alright child it's natural it's wild<br />

It's just the life force and you can use it<br />

You won't abuse it Enjoy yourself she said<br />

Take my husband to bed<br />

<br />

I couldn't keep my mind on the preacher standing by the casket<br />

Where she lay<br />

I couldn't weep entwined like some creature with a wish and I ask it<br />

Please go away<br />

Shock and grief follow death<br />

And I feel guilty that I still draw breath<br />

When the Maid of the Seas whispered to me in the breeze<br />

She said sex is the opposite of death<br />

It's the rule it's natural stay cool<br />

It's just the life force you gotta love it<br />

You're not above it Enjoy yourself she said<br />

Take my husband to bed
