Del & Eric
from An Unforgettable Luncheon by Pea Green Boat
lyrics
I - The Maelstrom
Chronicles
The fury of the admiral
And the patience of the whale
Time honoured traditional twists in the tale
Plugging the maelstrom
Plugging up the hole that's been dragging us down
To the heaviest depths
Crushing our heads
Generals dreaming up schemes from their beds
II - The Game
Del and Eric were the best at those games
All the finest treasures, the magical caves
Of the mind and the soul
The goblin, the snake and the troll
Del and Eric I am full of your love
Home is just below us, moving targets above
When I'm losing the game
Still you treat me the same nonetheless
III: The Anchor
When the wind in my sails
Won't carry me lightly
And I feel that I might be out of time
Down the line
There's a page at the end
A pop up reminder you're there
Atlas of sores
My face is a roadmap
I've circled a sun trap by the sea
You and me
In a couple of weeks
We'll meet by the anchor
The sun in my cheeks
Will tell me I'm thankful
To have you around
To be able to call you my friends
Chronicles
The fury of the admiral
And the patience of the whale
Time honoured traditional twists in the tale
Plugging the maelstrom
Plugging up the hole that's been dragging us down
To the heaviest depths
Crushing our heads
Generals dreaming up schemes from their beds
II - The Game
Del and Eric were the best at those games
All the finest treasures, the magical caves
Of the mind and the soul
The goblin, the snake and the troll
Del and Eric I am full of your love
Home is just below us, moving targets above
When I'm losing the game
Still you treat me the same nonetheless
III: The Anchor
When the wind in my sails
Won't carry me lightly
And I feel that I might be out of time
Down the line
There's a page at the end
A pop up reminder you're there
Atlas of sores
My face is a roadmap
I've circled a sun trap by the sea
You and me
In a couple of weeks
We'll meet by the anchor
The sun in my cheeks
Will tell me I'm thankful
To have you around
To be able to call you my friends
