The Dead Sea - Justin Currie

When you go baby, I don’t know

Whether to be glad or whether to be sad

When I’m alone I am free

When I am free, baby I’m alone

So you don’t know how to be around me

Cos around me is the dead sea

So you try to find my island

Well baby I don’t even know where I am

Nothing lives in this place

No lover’s breath across my face

So you don’t know how to be around me

Cos around me is the dead sea

The dead sea protects me

From sinking in that feeling

Left by your leaving

So when you go I just float

Out in the brine with the flotsam of what’s mine

You can shout but I can’t hear

No living thing’s ever getting near

So you don’t know how to be around me

Cos around me is the dead sea
