Lyrics:
Boys sound the bells
the sun rose from the west today
I doubt we’ll see it set
Oh and boys bear it well
put all your paper maps away
Mercator here can’t help
CHORUS
Go lift your sails up
for one last swell
Go lift yourselves up
to sound the bells
Sound the bells
Looks like our writing on the wall
is lorem ipsum after all
A higher tide will wash it all
wash it all away
The lighthouse keeper’s last relay:
hand shadows and a final wave
Now’s the time to rouse yourself
spend the strength you’ve saved
Go lift your sails up
for one last swell
Go lift yourselves up
to sound the bells
Sound the bells

I had to revisit this video after reading her book
Adriene S. That’s why I’m here!
Adriene S. Same!
Me too! Just finished that chapter. She did a great job telling the story of this video. Love that book!
150 pages in. Hello.
Now I have to find it on the shelf. I know it won't disappoint.
Had to watch this over after reading her book! Once you read the challenges behind this video it makes it even more impressive
Ha I'm doing the same right now!
Just read it in the book!
Same!
Me too!
How is she not more popular.. My god she is amazing... I have loved her music for a few years now!
Same. She's my favorite.
Just watched this after reading My Own Devices... absolutely stunned
A video damn near as stunning as the artist and mind behind the song. Bravo to all involved in this project.
I love Dessa. Also love hearing Aby in the chorus.
Dessa is a ray of light in an otherwise dark and downtrodden world. I listen to her songs and albums, of which I own all on disc, to revive my sunken soul. I sound the goddamn bells to brighten my own life and my inspiration is powered by beauty of lyrics and sound presented herein.
Doomtree for-fucking-ever.
Everything Dessa touches is such an amazing and powerful peace of art. She's the greatest.
I am an American merchant sailor and I loved this. One of the few artists since Stan Rogers or Gordon Lightfoot's "Edmund Fitzgerald" to write a song that seriously captures loss and seafaring.
Stunning video as well, the stone people are perfect for this song. Bravo! Will share with all my seafaring friends.
Damn. Now I wanna set sail in search of my white whale
Check out "Honey Honey" by Feist :-)
Reading her book now brings me to her music videos. I find a unique quality and clearness to her music and lyrics. Glad I bought the book.
Jesus. This is beautiful. Great job.
mike you got me addicted to her.
Whoa that.. That was... Whoa I am totally blown away... Just whoa..
Sisterlilly Bug She’s nice, I hope you meet her.
This song is beyond beautiful and I love how everyone can sing along.
LOVE everything about Dessa she's my Goddess (the way she sings) flawlessly.
The direction and cinematography perfectly matched this beautiful song. Kudos to all
This may be the most beautiful music video I've ever seen. Mad props to everyone who helped put it together.
Gorgeous video, good tune.
My life goal is to meet Dessa. I saw her at rock the garden and concluded that I had to meet her.
I've never had such a girl crush on anyone before, she's wonderful in every aspect!
kelsey l Jeyca M I agree with you guys! i have such a female crush on her, and i am dying to meet her! I would just about anything!..ugh!
Abookaholic I bet she's awesome. I would take her on a date
I have a lesbian crush on her, is that different from a "girl crush"? Is a girl crush like a fake crush that straight women have so they never have to act on it?
@@frankievalentine6112 I'm assuming it's like a "man crush," which means it's hero worship, not actually romantic, although to the level where the lines almost, but not quite, blur between the two. But I get it, if I thought I had even the slightest chance of dating her, I'd have a crush on her, too. Although, as a straight male, I don't have to reconcile anything other than how far out of my league she is...
Stunning.
Gorgeous song, gorgeous video. Wow.
Absolutely gorgeous! Love, love it!
Love love love it
This has been my earworm all week, and I still love it!
So glad you featured some of Jason deCaires Taylor sculptures. It's like two of my favorite artists blending together.
So beautiful 💖💖💖
Beautiful video for a lovely song. Really looking forward to seeing Dessa in the UK later this year.
Beautiful...
god. damn.
That Iguana doesn't even know it had a brush with greatness
A beautiful video for a beautiful song!!!
Mahalo...added this phenomenal video to my Playlist: QUANTUM OCEAN MUSIC MIx.
GREAT JOB!!!
stunning,
Amazing!!!
My 2014 favorite song!!!
Haunting video...
Anyone else here after reading about the video in her book?
Took a break from listening to this chapter to see it! It's really gorgeous and even more so after learning the amount of work done for it
definitely my favorite video by you! Inspiring! congrats!
#2 on Billboard classical crossover chart
I miss when Dessa made music like this.
You are all so right guys.
?? But, is there truly a Dessa statue in that garden now ?? That would really be some treasure to dive for :-)
No, there is no statue of her at MUSA (the underwater museum). We dive there all of the time (live on Isla Mujeres). Check out our channel, there are a few vids of dives there and elsewhere (and other cultural island vids, etc)
Amazing! Loved hearing about it on PRI - www.pri.org/stories/2015-01-21/heres-premiere-dessas-new-music-video-where-she-swims-among-underwater-statues

You're so perfect.
yeah I remember.
The Don rose from the West today...
the lyrics changed from the old version but i like this one
the red coats are coming
don't lose your right of choice
Which version of Lorem Ipsum did you mean, Dessa? Gibberish, or truth itself?
I really wanna know.
Some places you have to go empty.

Huh?
Treigh......

Hope she didn't leave her marbles on the ocean floor.
enhances the song beautifully, plus, she's an atheist, and that's what I really like about her...
She's an excommunicated atheist, which is especially amusing in relation to your Congregational proclamation.
Just think of all the horribly doctored, unimaginative, repetitive, TRASHY and popular music out there. Those artists get millions of views, while Dessa isn't recognized nearly enough. Saddening
