When my body bereaves me Bury me in the ocean Let the water receive me Let it scatter my bones Let the currents and tides all Carry me to the far off Rest as an emotion Bury me I will savor the old days From the beckoning cold waves Bury me in the ocean Now the sea is my kingdom My benevolent wisdom Stretches over the globe Embraces every coast I move with greater conviction Than I ever did living My remains are in motion Bury me in the ocean I will savor the old days From the beckoning cold waves Bury me in the ocean Bury me in the ocean Let the sea be my headstone Let the ripples remind me Of our tenderest motions Let the turbulent black sea In its tempestuous moments Drag your ragged heart to me In the depths if the ocean Bury me My remains are in motion Bury me in the ocean Bury me in the ocean
