lyrics

My oh my
How the world's changed and I
Watch from the window
Silver moons sinking by
Into a velvet black ocean
A thousand miles away
My home and the potion
For the words and the rain

My oh my
How the world's changed and why
Don't people surround me?
Are you my own private eye?
Keeping tabs on my movements
You've wire-tapped the phone
You know when I'm working
When I'm down and alone

Though the barmaid keeps smiling at me
It's the barman who's the one feeling lucky
There's wind on my temple
There's sand in my soul
I hope the North Sea just swallows us whole

My oh my
Let the ink stain the dye
Colour me in bruise blue
Hang me up from the sky
Where the breeze ignores your movements
Lets you float on away
Doesn't drown you or hound you
Above the words and rain

Though the barmaid keeps smiling at me
It's the barman who's the one feeling lucky
There's wind on my temple
There's sand in my soul
I hope the North Sea just swallows us whole
Bandages us and marries us
Keeps us in it's grip
Tight on the shore with the shingle and flint
'Cause I need this
Oh I need this!
But I want this even more
Maybe by morning we'll wash up on the shore
