Echo & the Bunnymen

Echo & the Bunnymen are an English post-punk band, formed in Liverpool in 1978. The original line-up consisted of vocalist Ian McCulloch, guitarist Will Sergeant and bass player Les Pattinson, supplemented by a drum machine.

One in a million, one and the same
Looking for freedom, born to be tamed
Once in a lifetime, one of these days
Gonna grab me a lifeline, swinging my way

I'm swimming out on a blue, blue ocean
You're sailing out on a blue, blue sea
Silhouettes and a vulture hoping
He's gonna pick the bones of you and me
You and me

Hearts of fires, hearts of bone
Beating stronger, beating home
Where there's wanting, there is need
Where there's having, there is greed

I'm swimming out on a blue, blue ocean
You're sailing out on a blue, blue sea
Silhouettes and a vulture hoping
He's gonna pick the bones of you and me
You and me

Girl I want the gold dust in your fingers
And your klondike touch
Girl I want the goldmine as it shimmers
In your solemn eyes

I'm swimming out on a blue, blue ocean
You're sailing out on a blue, blue sea
Silhouettes and a vulture hoping
Licking the bones of you and me

I'm swimming out on a blue, blue ocean
You're sailing out on a blue, blue sea
Blue, blue sea

I'm swimming out on the ocean
(Blue, blue ocean)
You're sailing out on the sea
(Blue, blue sea)
I'm swimming out on the ocean
(Blue, blue ocean)
You're sailing out on the sea
(Blue, blue sea)

I'm swimming out on the ocean
(Blue, blue ocean)
You're sailing out on the sea
(Blue, blue sea)
I'm swimming out on the ocean
(Blue, blue ocean)
You're sailing out on the sea
(Blue, blue sea)

Blue, blue ocean
Blue, blue sea
