Nightmares By The Sea Songtext / Lyric

Beware the bottled thoughts of angry young men

Secret compartments hide all of skeletons

Little girl wants to make her home with him

In the middle of the shore she wonders



Don't know what you asked for

Don't know what you asked for



All young lovers know why

Nightmares blind their mind's eye

Your rube is young and handsome

So new to your bedroom floor

You know damn well where you'll go



I've loved so many times and I've drowned them all

From the coral graves they rise up when darkness falls

With their bones they'll scratch the window

I hear them call



Don't know what you asked for

Don't know what you asked for

Don't know what you asked for






All young lovers know why

Nightmares blind their mind's eye

Your rube is young and handsome

So new to your bedroom floor

You know damn well where you'll go



Stay with me under these waves tonight

Be free for once in your life tonight



Your rube is young and handsome

So new to your bedroom floor

You know damn well where you'll go

All young lovers know why

Nightmares blind their mind's eye



Your rube is young and handsome

So new to your bedroom floor

You know damn well where you'll go

All young lovers know why

Nightmares blind their mind's eye



Your rube is young and handsome

So new to your bedroom floor

You know damn well where you'll go
