Lyrics for Devil And The Deep

I'd like to be a standing stone, looking out to sea Or maybe just a pebble thrown across a windswept beach I'd like to make my own way home, like a river or a stream Not knowing where I'm going to, or ever caring where I've been And I'd like to believe it when you say That it's getting closer and closer every day 'Cause it sure feels a long, long way away Standing on a precipice, looking down into the abyss that's facing me Stranded on an island rock, I'm torn between the devil and the deep blue sea Torn between the devil and the deep blue sea Torn between the devil and the deep blue sea I'd like to think that I could fly, like a bird upon a wing I'd like to think that maybe I, like a songbird, does sing Way up on a mountain top, I'm peering through the clouds Crashing like a fallen rock, I tumble to the ground And I'd like to believe it when you say That it's getting closer and closer every day 'Cause it sure feels a long, long way away Standing on a precipice, looking down into the abyss that's facing me Stranded on an island rock, torn between the devil and the deep blue sea Torn between the devil and the deep blue sea I'm torn between the devil and the deep blue sea
