Sea of Years - Local Natives

People, they say

Higher high

Why do they go

Lower lower?

I need to know

Do I want to believe?

Trying to climb

Higher high

The weight of it all

On your shoulders

Palms up to show

That I’ve dug in too deep

I’ll make up my mind

When a sea of years pass inside

Why is it I’d need a thousand lives?

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Even if I live again

(Even if I live again)

Just enough to reach the hands

(Just enough to reach the hands)

All of the hands reaching out to me

I’ll make up my mind

When a sea of years pass inside

Why is it I need a thousand lives?

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Do we need a mountain to climb?

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

You try to fight I don’t want to change your mind

I try to fight I don’t want to change your mind

You try to fight I don’t want to change your mind

You try to fight I don’t want to change your mind

You try to fight I don’t want to change your mind

You try to fight I don’t want to change your mind

I’ll make up my mind

When a sea of years pass inside

Why is it I need a thousand lives?

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Do we need a mountain to climb?

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
