lyrics
Believe me, when I say I'd rather not speak.
I only feel at home inside my headphones.
On top of that rock, underneath the Surf Hotel,
is where she came to me with a thousand smiles.
Hey, she's a serpent of the sea, a child of the sun.
Her Mother was a melody, and her father was a gun,
yeah, she's the only one.
She's the only one I ever want to see.
Believe me, when I say I'd rather not go.
I only feel at home when I roam.
On top of that rock, underneath the Surf Hotel,
is where she came to me with a thousand smiles.
Her sadness is extraordinary, like a cold, cold coal canary.
Her brother joined the military and her sisters all just got married.
She's the only one I ever want to see.
She's the only one who won't come along with me.
When the sun goes down on the Surf Hotel,
I put my feet in the sand and all I can smell
is my burnin' mind when I close my eyes,
and all I can see is her smile.
Yeah, all I can see is her smile.
She's a serpent of the sea, a child of the sun.
Her Mother was a melody, and her father was a gun,
yeah, she's the only one I ever want to see.
