DROWN (Remastered)

2019 mix! Robert "Buck" Wilburn - electric guitars David Partridge – vocals, acoustic guitar, keyboards Words and music by David Partridge Produced by David Partridge for Blue Window Media Inc. Mixed in Nova Scotia DROWN Dancing inside the flood, Battered and buoyed by the tune that the currents sing. Rapids boil your blood, Pushing your pulse to a place worth remembering. Swept down the big stream, you twirl and spin like a leaf. Caught by the deep dream, pulled down to bliss or to grief. See me from the riverbank a smooth and tranquil blue, Don’t be surprised were I to rise and drown the likes of you. Whitecaps and sunshine You see the sea through the veil of an inland bride. Longing for coastline, Blind to the unfeeling grasp of the hungry tide. What’s down the gulf stream out of the range of the eyes? Is life but a dream, broken just as you capsize? See me from the boardwalk, mama, glittering and blue, You should learn how I can churn and drown the likes of you. Hear the water’s voice and wonder does the ocean call? Can you tell your passion’s thunder from a waterfall? Carried to extremes, we all have poisons to purge. Sometimes it just seems tempting to jump and submerge. See me from your airplane, mama, shiny, tiny, blue, Make sure you know how I can blow and drown the likes of you. Words and music by David Partridge
