I put a fire truck in your crib, our mama said,
I was so pleased to find a little sister,
“Hush, hush,” we whispered through the door between our rooms,
We knew the rhymes, but grown-ups sometimes forget them.
And we...and we sink gently down,
And we...and we sink gently down.
What I would give to have been there beside you,
Receive the bite, exchange our lives last Thursday,
I put this fire truck in this box, beside your body,
I know right now your eyes can’t see it.
And we...and we sink gently down,
And we...and we sink gently down,
And we...and we sink gently down,
And we...and we sink gently down.
The sea, the sea is turning red,
The sea, the sea is turning red,
The sea, the sea is turning red,
The sea, the sea is turning red,
The sea, the sea is turning red,
The sea, the sea is turning red.
