Lyrics for Red Sky

I know what lies beneath I've seen the flash of teeth Conspiring with the reef To sink our ship The wind's a cheating wife Her tongue a thirsty knife And she could take your life With one good kiss Can you see the sky turn red As morning's light breaks over me? Know tonight we'll make our bed At the bottom of the sea I know the ocean speaks (the stars retreat behind their veil) I've heard her call to me (the clouds are clinging to your sail) And smiling in my dreams (the storm is coming, can you see?) She whispers this (can you see?) "Can you see the sky turn red As morning's light breaks over me? Know tonight we'll make our bed At the bottom of the sea" Look and see the sky turn red Like blood, it covers over me Soon the sea shall give up her dead Raise an empire from the bottom of the sea
