"Savage Sea" lyrics - THE POP GROUP

I was waiting for a mermaid to appear
Saying, "Come little boy, drown your fears," so young
We're the new explorers with the spirit of Dr. Livingstone

We'll talk to the savage sea
It's the only direction for you and me

We won't die together in the desert, we'll escape from the men of prey
We'll smile like the French Resistance and laugh at the guillotine

We'll talk to the savage sea
It's the only direction for you and me

Disapproved of life around them
So they created a world of their own
You're my last request before the firing squad
But bullets cannot penetrate the sea

We'll hide in the savage sea
It's the only direction for you and me

Why should heroes always die in battle?
Take the violin
We're exiles
We're exiles
We're exiles
