Lyrics of 'Curaçao' by Emma Bale

Going into the water
To become someone other
'Cause there's no one else I want to be
I was never a crier, while I was under water
Is there nowhere else I can be?

Take me back to the place
I know this is not my home, I'm mistaken
Take me back to the place
I know I'm mistaken

I say
Put your head back, lay your hair down
Listen to the waves, put your head under the water
Put your head back, lay your hair down
Listen to the waves, put your head under the water
Head under the water
Head under the water

I'ma tear up and fight in
A race for the shoreline
Tearing down to the turquoise sea
Therein nothing is heavy
Only the dark blue scares me
Circle round, I'm avoiding the deep

Take me back to the place
I know this is not my home, I'm mistaken
Take me back to the place
I know I'm mistaken

I say
Put your head back, lay your hair down
Listen to the waves, put your head under the water
Put your head back, lay your hair down
Listen to the waves, put your head under the water
Head under the water
Head under the water

While I was drifting away with the turtles
I held back my shell from the tide
I carry you like a home wherever I go
'Cause that's when I'm feeling alive

I say
Put your head back, lay your hair down
Listen to the waves, put your head under the water
Put your head back, lay your hair down
Listen to the waves, put your head under the water
Put your head back, lay your hair down

Listen to the waves, put your head under the water
Put your head back, lay your hair down
Listen to the waves, put your head under the water
Head under the water
Head under the water
