about

We revisited Rolling Baby Blanket for this album, though we've recorded it once or twice before. It's not on any of our previous albums. We love how surreal and dreamy this song is. Its tale - of a sailor kidnapped by a mermaid and taken to the bottom of the ocean - seemed like a natural fit for this album full of fanciful soundscapes. Copyright 2013.

lyrics

Well blow me away, I'm the mouth of the storm
When I get hypnotized on too much blues
Every sound that I make, and the trees start to shake
Like a hurricane that's humming down the dune

Under the waves she's hiding
To steal me away from that thunder and lightning
Down below, well I won't miss a thing
I'll be laughing at that old life I once knew

Under the waves she's hiding
To steal me away from that thunder and lightning
Now I play and I feast with the fish underneath
That rolling baby blanket of the blue
