The melody and lyrics came to me while on a one-month shamatha-vipassana retreat on Mount Tuam. They persisted for years, morphing always morphing forms.
Answers to common questions:
Q: What's with the guinea pigs (rabbits, cat, etc-in the video?)
A: They wanna' go to the ocean.
Q: Who's that at the end of the recording?
A: That's a field recording of the ocean waves, and it happened that a parent and child were there- those are the voices you hear.
lyrics
Let’s go to the ocean
Let’s go down to the sea and see if
Inside there’s an ocean if
Inside -is an ocean of
music…
Going to the ocean
Oo oo oo ocean
Ocean of music
O o o ocean
Oo oo oo ocean
Let’s go down to the ocean
Take ourselves and lay them down
Lay them down, lay it down
And Inside- feel the tide
Splash around, it’s all sound
When you’re a drop in the
Oo oo oo cean…
drop in the ocean
Oo oo oo cean…
Drop in the ocean
O o o ocean…
Don’t swim alone
Drop it down to the ocean
Don’t swim alone
Ooh taking it down
Ocean of sound
Gonna’ splash around…
Come see (in the ocean), the forest as the trees (in the ocean)
The forest as the trees…
