lyrics

Drive your moped across the sea

Come to me,
oh lay your body down
the island is sleeping
but I’m here keeping it real
Come to me
Oh let me hear the sound
the click of the engine
that’s building the tension I feel

Come to me
I’m helpless I declare
I’m hooked on this feeling of love
and I’m reeling I swear
Come to me
Oh trade your set ‘o wheels
for something the ocean
can set forth in motion for real

Throw your chemistry
Throw your chemistry in with mine
Drop your anchor in place and time
See the tide is awash with lines of symmetry
In this tapestry
In this tapestry we combine
Let the weft and the weave align
Drive your moped across the sea to be with me

Try not to take it all
Try not to take it all
Try not to take it all so seriously
But in the end even that thought defeats me…
