Reading about deep-diving whales reminded me that all life came up out of the ocean into the light. (Len)
lyrics
Dancing in the darkness
Lost in the night
You came up out of the ocean
Into the light
Then you sing for hours
Leap into the air
Fall back into the ocean
Without a care
Ooh I want to see you dance
Hear you sing
Ooh I want to take a chance
On you surviving
I’m singing for the dolphins
Whales in the sea
I’m singing for the Bunjalung
And the Wiradguri
Living by the seasons
Light of the sun and the moon
Looking for the reasons
Hearing the tune
Ooh I want to see you dance
Hear you sing
Ooh I want to take a chance
On you surviving
We’re all dancing in the darkness
We’re lost in the night
We came up out of the ocean
Into the light
We can sing for hours
Leap into the air
Dive into the ocean without a care
Ooh we want to dance
And we want to sing
Ooh we want to take a chance
On really living.
We’re all dancing in the darkness
We’re lost in the night
We came up out of the ocean
Into the light
