Yacht Dance lyrics

Artist  : Xtc 
Song : Yacht Dance
 
(andy partridge)

We, we will dance like tiny boats with cotton
sails upon the tops of the seas,
That would pull us down to the depths and crush
us flat if given half a chance.
No need to look back to pictures of lost, when
all was rust.
We, we will skim across the surface of the mud as
if we’re spinning pebbles
Oh, in our yacht dance
Oh, in our yacht dance

We, we will dance like tiny boats with cotton
sails upon the tops of the seas,
Made of people stained with scorn who never see
the light of real love.
No need to look back through diaries of lost now
turned to dust.
We, we will skate across the surface of the storm
as if we’re wheeling sea-birds.
Oh, in our yacht dance
Oh, in our yacht dance

And how they’ll be jealous of both of us!
In our yacht dance.

We, we will dance like tiny boats with cotton
sails upon the tops of the seas,
That would pull us down to the depths and crush
us flat if given half a chance.
No need to look back to pictures of lost, when
all was rust.
We, we will skim across the surface of the mud as
if we’re spinning pebbles
Oh, in our yacht dance
Oh, in our yacht dance
