Watchful

Watchful (1997) is an album by the American experimental pop music group Amoeba. This is the first Amoeba album to feature the classic lineup of Robert Rich and Rick Davies. The style of this album consists of subtle and largely acoustic pop compositions with heavy ambient textures. Work on this album began in 1994. It was completed in 1995. Over the next two years they searched for a label to distribute the album. It was finally released in 1997 on the Lektronic Soundscapes label. When distribution problems arose with Lektronic Soundscapes, they moved to Release Records, who had also released Rich’s solo album Trances/Drones. more »

Adrift in fog and smoke
There was nothing that I found
I wanted to find shore
Put my feet on solid ground

But every time I tried
There was nothing I could reach
The sea would pull me back
Take me further from the beach

A riptide pulled me out
Pushed me deeper in the breach
The language of the waves
Had me caught up in its speech
I had to find my voice
And say something I could teach

I could not find a way
There was darkness all around
I grasped at any straw
Had to find some solid ground

And just when I lost hope
Your hand took ahold of mine
You towed me to the shore
So I held on to your line

You helped me to stand up
You just wanted to be kind
And yet it was so real
It was what I had to find
I am not gonna drown
And I know I will be fine

My feet are on the sand
The smoke has cleared the skies
I'm safely back on land
I can open up my eyes

I can feel it in the air
I can hold it my hand
I can truly see you there
I can finally understand

After all those years
After all I've lost
After all those fears
And after all that cost

I'm glad I grabbed your hand
That held me safe and sound
I'm standing on solid ground
