Lyrics of Montreal

of Montreal

The Secret Ocean

Secret ocean and its coast

Spills out into the room

And it made me think

Of how you float away

To another distant room

Embracing the unknown

And I wonder what

You're doing there today

Because I'm always thinking of you

Your invisible rays slice me in two

You crush me every day

You made me change my shape

I could be anything you want me to

Drifting along

Your golden doorway

You tried to duck your head

But the ceiling sinks along

And lifts you up

Into a place where you

Can be anything you want to

An old dead branch

A big red ant

A singing clown

It might be impossible

To reach into the sky

And send you out a greeting

On the telepathic line

Another selfish scheme

For entering your dream

Across the secret ocean

In the broad unending time

I'm always thinking of you

Your invisible rays slice me in two

You crush me every day

You made me change my shape

I could be anything you want me to

I could be anything you want me to

I could be anything you want me to
