Just Been Born

Heather Nova

My heart opened like an oyster shell
I drank salt water from you lips
And just below the equator
I swallowed the pearl

And I feel, and I feel, and I feel
Like I've just been born

And the sea rolled in and rose around us
Your face above me, darkening the stars
And as the waves were breaking out along the reef
I dived for your heart

And I feel, and I feel, and I feel
Like I've just been born
