This is a song about the lost love I feel for an ancient extinct sea monster I saw on a documentary.
Liopleurodon
One morning I was kneeling in the clay
When I found some bones from a prehistoric day
What mighty creature once was made from these?
and im taken to a distant time
a blue and tranquil maritime
where giant reptiles ruled the ancient seas
and I, recall
that to you and I the world just seemed
so small
(CHORUS):
Liopleurodon, I love you
I'm always thinking of you
feeding on leedsichtyses in June
and you've been dead for so long
but still our love is so strong
I want to swim with you beneath the Jurassic moon
oo i loved you so
90 million lives ago
you and i once ruled the inland sea
and even now i see you
i hunted icthyosaurs to feed you
back when life was wonderful and free
CHORUS
200 million years before
the nautilus walked the ocean floor
an equal time has passed
he's still here today
and you have gone away
but like the nautilus our love will last...
forever!
we ruled the ancient--- seas together----
Liopleurodon, I love you
I'm always thinking of you
and how the sea is empty without you
you were so strong and agile
but in the end so fragile
the earth and ocean grew too cold for you
and I, today
cry because all good things like you
die
away----
