The Coast Songtext
If you want my treasure I'll send you my king
And if you dare you do your battle with him
If you win you take home my spoils
And if you lose , I hope you like the cold
I hope you like it

On the beaches lay scattered bones
Hear their cries through the mist and the foam
Set us free and take us home
Lay me down somewhere dry and somewhere warm

At night they do tell of troublesome things
Of enchants and presences drawing them in
Voices from the dark depths calling them near
Saying come a little closer you've nothing to fear
Come a little closer

Beauty behold this watery tomb
In these crags and these cliffs I have carved out your doom
Gentle like a lover or as wild as the same
You come to me wanton and you curse my name
I took you as a parlay and you rue the day
You heed not the warnings
Your only to blame

On the beaches lay scattered bones
Hear them cry through the mist
Oohh oh
Set us free and take us home
Lay me down somewhere dry and somewhere warm
