Rapture
Seed Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Stay with me
Find time waste it on me
You'll see the trouble I've been through today

We can be like cats and creepy crawly
Pick the bugs from my hair like a monkey
Take an elephant ride down to the sea
This is the last day of mine

Stay with me
Find time waste it on me
You'll see the trouble I've been through today

We can skinny dip with the sea lions
Get octopus hugs till the tides come in
Lay upon the rocks and blow dandelions
This is the last day of mine

Tickle my nose
With another rose

Stay with me
Find time waste it on me
You'll see the trouble I've been through today





Stay with me...

I actually got to see these guys live at CBGB's back in the 90's. I was very surprised how they harmonized live and it sounded exactly like the album. They were incredible.
