Transatlanticism
Lyrics 
The atlantic was born today and I'll tell you how
The clouds above opened up and let it out

I was standing on the surface of a perforated sphere
When the water filled every hole

I need you so much closer
So come on, come on
The clouds above opened up and let it out
I need you so much closer
Making islands where no island should go
I was standing on the surface of a perforated sphere
I need you so much closer
So come on, come on

Instrumental break
The distance is quite simply much too far for me to row
I need you so much closer
And thousands upon thousands made an ocean
So come on, come on
Oh no
I need you so much closer
The rhythm of my footsteps crossing flood lands to your door have been silenced forever more
I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer
I need you so much closer
Those people were overjoyedthey took to their boats
The atlantic was born today and I'll tell you how
So come on, come on
Oh no
I thought it less like a lake and more like a moat
I need you so much closer
It seems farther than ever before
When the water filled every hole
