Me I imagine places
That I have never seen
The colored lights in fountains,
Blue and green

And I imagine places
That I will never go
Behind these clouds that hang here,
Dark and low

But it's there when I'm holding you
It's there when I am sleeping too
It's there when there is nothing left of me
It's hanging just beyond
the burned out factory
Out of reach but leading me
Into the beautiful sea

And I remember something
It feels a lot like fear
Some kid is wild and shouting
Coast is clear

And it's there when I'm holding you
It's there when I am sleeping too
It's there when there is nothing left of me
It's hanging just beyond
the burned out factory
Out of reach but leading me
Into the beautiful sea

The Beautiful Sea is a beautiful song.

Every time I hear her voice, I'm stunned. Again.

Sort of reminds me of Sandy Denny (Fairport Convention), not the same sound, but somehow reminiscent.

OK, so this isn't as strong as most of the Hem I've heard, but gosh, you know? It's still Hem... I sure won't turn it off.

Is this the Captain and Teneel? Or the Carpenters? Sorry. I like other Hem songs, but this one reminded me of Puppy Love rock or something like that.

Wonderful, a very ethereal voice.

Wow, when did this show up? Instantly recognizable as Hem. This is one of those bands I have to be in the mood for, but what they do, they do very good, IMHO. Music for the soundtrack of somebody's life. Got this CD a few months ago, and have not been disappointed. If you like this song you'll probably like either (or both) of their albums. This album continues in the same vein as their first one, Rabbit Songs. Good, soothing music to drift off with.
