Lyrics for Log in the Waves

Broken hearted and sad, I walk upright A dumb ape in a world of dumb apes A log in the waves Knowing sorrow is always beside me, I walk upright "Oh, crown of light" I sometimes say "I know you're grand But I must not forget my wife So I hold her hand" And with the wide eyes sorrow brings we see it all Like logs in the waves Effortless through ocean squalls And we know storms are relentless So so are we We will not leave Sadness (my wife) and I are honest with each other And in mornings I reach my hand under the quilt Where she hides To tickle her feet And at my touch She cracks a smile
