about

Studio version of the song Bottle from MoGo

lyrics

here in this bottle which rests on my knee
there is a ship which could sail on the sea
all the proportions exact to a T
and I'm going to sell(sail?) it for all of the world

here is my bottle i can rest at last
straighten the rudder and climb up the mast
and i won't stop 'til the future's the past
i'm going to sail where the comets are hurled

from a distance by degrees
the way the lightning pricks the seas
promise to never grow older
i promise to not grow at all

all the times that you'll be told
that you will live and die for gold
promise to never grow sober
i promise to not grow at all

here by the sea shore i look at the waves
all the sea horses and how they behave
don't cry by angel and try to be brave
i'm going to sell you for all of the world

here in my paradise all would be well
if my kid brother would come back from hell
i can imagine the stories he'd tell
we're going to sail where the comets are hurled

from a distance by degrees
the way the lightning pricks the seas
promise to never grow older
i promise to not grow at all

all the times that you'll hear said
that you will live and die for bread
promise to never grow sober
i promise to not grow at all
