The Blue Museum

Nuzzled to her chest
She whispered to my ear
That she was half angel
And half buccaneer
My hand held to my throat
Woke up with a scream
And fell out of the boat
Into the blue museum
Our love sailed like a song
Gently down the stream
Into the fog, over the falls
Into the blue museum
I’m just another ghost
Down with the giant squid
Who watch over the sunken ships
Down in the blue museum
The pelicans go blind
No longer dive through
The giant, liquid rooftop
Of the blue museum
The giant, liquid rooftop
Of the blue museum
