Dialing in a forgotten [bad word] in like waves rolling off the coast
Sweeping through illegal ports
Rising from the depths, falling off the tongue
Ships drifting out of [bad word] in like waves rolling off the coast

Many, many more, sculpting the shoreline
Etching the harbor and the people
Who've stayed [bad word] in like waves rolling off the coast

Dialing in a forgotten voice
Rising from the depths, falling off the tongue
Sweeping through illegal [bad word] in like waves rolling off the coast
Ships drifting out of tune
Can't stop the [bad word] like a ghost

Is that your shape in the foam of the sea
After all these [bad word] home to me?

La Chascona, hearts to ocean
(With vows unbroken)
Lying in the bath fully clothed
Ready for the ocean's wake
The tears won't wash away
What her eyes can't erase

Not safe to say in her native tongue
radio voice drowning out
The general's song lingering on
raft made of books from a driftwood house
Returns to the waves
