Blue Lagoon - Laurie Anderson

I got your letter.

Thanks a lot

I’ve been getting lots of sun.

And lots of rest.

It’s really hot

Days, I dive by the wreck.

Nights, I swim in the blue lagoon

Always used to wonder who I’d bring to a desert island

Days, I remember cities.

Nights, I dream about a perfect place

Days, I dive by the wreck.

Nights, I swim in the blue lagoon

Full fathom five thy father lies.

Of his bones are coral made

Those are pearls that were his eyes.

Nothing of him that doth fade

But that suffers a sea change.

Into something rich and strange

And I alone am left to tell the tale

Call me Ishmael

I got your letter.

Thanks a lot

I’ve been getting lots of sun.

And lots of rest.

It’s really hot

Always used to wonder who I’d bring to a desert island

Days, I remember rooms.

Nights, I swim in the blue lagoon

I saw a plane today.

Flying low over the island

But my mind was somewhere else

And if you ever get this letter.

Thinking of you

Love and kisses.

Blue Pacific.
