In and out...
Out and in...
Whispering softly...
the tune of life...
Breathing it into the air...
Like a packet of salt and vinegar crisps,
When you first open them...
The whiff...
Floating upwards...
Reaching into space...
In and out...
Out and in...
Whispering softly...
the tune of life...
Breathing it into the air...
The sea and me...
Together we breathe,
Sucking in mouthfuls of life...
Then exhaling with smiles...
Watching the world...
In and out...
Out and in...
Whispering softly...
the tune of life...
Breathing it into the air...
Yet when things get rough...
We spin and scream...
Raging through the world...
But when we have had enough...
We cry...
In and out...
Out and in...
Whispering softly...
the tune of life...
Breathing it into the air...
We live on...
The sea and me...
Crashing...
Yet floating...
The sea and me.
