The Silkie Song - Karan Casey

I’ll come up from the salty sea

And watch the waves come in

I’ll come up from the salty sea

And watch the waves come in

Silkie song o’er the rain and wind

Watch the waves come in

Sing a song in the moon and sun

A seal out of my skin

I’ll come up to the sandy beach

I’ll hear the silkie sing

I’ll come up to the sandy beach

I’ll hear the silkie sing

Magic song and I’ll sing along

Hear the silkie sing

Sing along in my golden coat

A seal out of my skin

I’ll go down with a shopping bag

All full up to the brim

I’ll go down with my shopping bag

All full up to the brim

Chocolate bars and a kettle of fish

Full up to the brim

Share my tea with the seals who sing

We’re full up to the brim

Go to sleep with no shoes and socks

I’m going for a swim

Go to sleep with no shoes and socks

I’m going for a swim

Pack my boots in a cardboard box

I’m going for a swim

Read them all on the slimy rocks

A seal inside my skin

I’ll come up from the salty sea

And watch the waves come in

I’ll come up from the salty sea

And watch the waves come in
