[Verse 1]
The coal black sea waits for me, me, me
The coal black sea waits forever
The waves hit the shore crying more, more, more
But the coal black sea waits forever
[Verse 2]
Tornados come, up the coast they run
Hurricanes rip the sea forever
Though the weathers change, the sea remains the same
The coal black sea waits forever
[Verse 3]
There are ashes spilt through collective guilt
People sleep in the deep forever
Since they burnt you up, put you in a cup
For you the coal black sea was no terror
[Verse 4]
Will your ashes float like some foreign boat
Or will they sink, absorbed forever?
Will the Atlantic Coast have its final boast?
Nothing else contained you ever
[Verse 5]
The coal black sea waits for me, me, me
The coal black sea waits forever
When I blow this joint at some further point
The coal black sea awaits me
Coal Black Sea was written by Lou Reed.
