Story behind the song
This is a revamped version of an older song originally written by Thomas and Cynthia. The aquatic instrumentation and lyrics were inspired by one of Cynthia’s early childhood memories. Margaret’s succinct guitar solo adds that "extra something" it always lacked; this, combined with Cynthia’s awesome vocals, makes "Underwater Place" one of our best songs.
Lyrics
I'd made my mind up; I'd had quite enough. I was too small but I just wanted it all. You had the fins and My feet were dangling; Could only wade in While I watched you swimming. Diamonds on the waves, I'm sinking through this space In the soft embrace Of an underwater place. I pushed against A floor made of sand And left the land. How could I know My weight on the float Wouldn't hold? I'd made my mind up; I'd had quite enough. I put my foot down But there was nothing, no ground. You had the fins and My float was caving in. I started slipping Until the water caught me. Diamonds on the waves, I'm sinking through this space In the soft embrace Of an underwater place. I'd found my dream-sleep; My thoughts were sinking deep. There was nearly no sound And it went dusk all around. You had the fins and You started reeling me in. No fear of leaving, No longer need for breathing. No, no, no, let me go. No, no, no, let me float. Diamonds on the waves, I'm sinking through this space In the soft embrace Of an underwater place. No, no, no, let me go. No, no, no, let me float. Diamonds blur and haze, I'm falling through this space. Oh, I want to stay In this underwater place. Lyrics (c) 2003 Cynthia Conrad
