Drowning Ophelia

from Riptides by Casee Wilson

/

lyrics

Drowning Ophelia says her heart's not for the taking
She's been waiting for his footsteps in the sand
Drowning Ophelia weighs her pockets down with longing
as the seaweed slips like silver through her hand

Ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Ooh ooh

Drowning Ophelia rides the currents where they take her
She's a glassy eyed pretender to the throne
Drowning Ophelia knows there's no-one left to save her
She always knew that she'd be better off alone

Ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Ooh ooh

(Sweets for my sweet, dreams for my dream, sweets for my sweet)

Drowning Ophelia left her heart beneath the willow
Softly haunting every corner of her mind
Drowning Ophelia said goodbye to hopes and wishes
Now she's sleeping and she left her dreams behind

And gin.

But we don’t like to talk about that. *hic*
