can someone help me figure out these lyrics?

there was a girl in 69 she swam along to the tide

??????? her little body pulled her down

when she sank down to the ground

the pearls and shells that she had found

she wore them just like jewelry

and then she smiled

i'm swimming in the river but i'm dreaming of the sea

i'm drowning in the river but i'm dreaming of the sea here i lie i see no sky my beautiful pearls, shells and i (?)

i lie very still

Согласен, нам ведь теперь только этого и подавай.

What a beautiful human being!

I can only hope she plays in Glasgow some time...

for Harry S.:

Erika has actually been on a concert with Meredith Monk before, here in Berlin in the Kulturbrauerei, I think, about two years ago

:-)

Since I love Meredith for long, I went there and also had the pleasure of hearing Erika the first time.

And then in the film Heimatklänge from Stefan Schwietert, which is also introduced here at youtubefor your information!

Also try the FMM 2007 festival interview with her.

You Tube is great! Gives performance/vocal/instrumental artists like Erika a chance to get out to an audience who, like me, had never heard of her before. I'm a big George Gruntz Concert jazz Band fan--I got to Erika's site through Ray Anderson's listings. She's pretty interesting, reminds me of Meredith Monk. Good luck to Erika.
