On a Beach

Richard Ashcroft

Have swam those raging seas
Washed up by an ocean who had tired of me
How I survive
I will never know

This wreck got a home
And a whole lot of hope

I'm out on a beach
Sat on a rock
Thinking of you and the love I've got

I saw the devil's servant
I sent her home
Said bring me you master I don't want his dog

I'm on fire
I'm full of love and new desire

I lit my fire blew my conch
Nobody comes
I built my boat from bamboo
But it sunk

I looked at the sky for vapour trails
Nobody comes

I wrote your name on a tree
Along with the days this is taking you away from me

I'm out on a beach
Sat on a rock
Thinking of you and the love I've got

I saw the devil's servant
I sent her home
Said bring me you master I don't want his dog

I'm on fire
I'm full of love and new desire

I ain't afraid to die
Ain't afraid to die
And here we go
Ain't afraid to die

I'm out on a beach
Sat on a rock
Thinking of you and the love I've got

I saw the devil's servant
I sent her home
Said bring me you master I don't want his dog
