Down To
The Sea
Into The Water
I’m going down into the water, I’m going into the sea
Water is below me, water is on top of me
I dreamed that I saw Elvis walking on the water
He must have weighed three hundred pounds, but he did not falter
I dreamed that I saw Marilyn Monroe, and I followed after her
She told me that some like it hot, while we were standing on a glacier
If I’m sleeping let me be
Waves of water carry me
I’m going down into the water, I’m going into the sea
Water is below me, water is on top of me
I dreamed that I saw Sigmund Freud fishing off the side of the ship
He wasn’t having a lot of luck but I think he enjoyed the trip
I dreamed that I heard Nixon saying he wasn’t a crook
He was practicing his Checkers speech standing beside the babbling brook
If you see me start to slip
Cut the lines abandon ship
I’m going down into the water. I’m going into the sea
Water is below me, water is on top of me
Dreams Come Calling
She was a hometown girl with a burning kind of urge
For a long tall drifter in the night
He was a free wheeling jammer with a love for his leisure
And no need for a girl or a bride
She had dreams of love in the moonlight
He didn’t know didn’t care if she cried
Because it all comes apart and you’ll see a broken heart
When dreams come calling in the night
He was a long tall guy and in the blink of an eye
Was a fool for a vision in the night
She was a dark haired beauty workin late night duty
Wasn’t lookin for a means of delight
He had dreams of love under starlight
She didn’t know didn’t care when he sighed
That’s when it all fell apart and he saw a broken heart
Because dreams came calling in the night
When the sun goes down
In this sleepy little town
And the curtains hide every little sin
Whether fool or sage
Seems everyone of every age
Is gonna see a broken heart again and again
Its a lonely thing after midnight
Thats when you face what cant be denied
And then it all comes apart and you’ll see a broken heart
When dreams come calling in the night
Rain on the Wire
Wake up in the morning in paradise
But it’s the bad part of town so it’s not so nice
Sun shining down like it did before
I feel like I’m in a lingering war
Machines break down on the sun baked ground
And good times don’t ever come around
You got to get it while the get tings good
I’d get it if I only could
The sun don’t give me no place to hide
On a one hour free way ride
I get back home and I fall on the bed
I got a pounding in my head
It’s a mixed up world, it’s often harsh and cold
It’s a mixed up world, it’s a hard place I’m told
But then you call me up
You call me on the phone
We talk and talk and the rain comes down
Yes its rain on the wire
Higher and higher
You care about me care about me now
It’s a mixed up world, it’s often harsh and cold
It’s a mixed up world, it’s a hard place I’m told
But now there’s rain on the wire
That’s water on fire
When you call me on the telephone
Rain on the wire
It’s time to retire
Because there’s a good future now I know
Kabul
Gotta get a booking on the last train out of Kabul
I want to spend my summer by the Moscow swimming pool
Gotta get a booking while the Mujahedeen aren’t looking
Gotta get a ticket on the last train outa Kabul
Well I coulda take a convoy but truck travel is really not my style
It gets cold in back ridding with the other guys
Well I coulda take a transport but you know they’re always shooting
them down
Won’t ride no plane, gotta get a ticket for the train
Chorus
Oh I miss my mamma’s cooking and I miss Natasha’s warm embrace
This war is getting old and I’ve got to get out of this place
Well the girls here treat me nice but you know they’re paid to be that
way
She talked all night but I didn’t know a what she was saying
Chorus
You know they say that I’m the devil but to Brezhnev I was just a pawn
Don’t look back baby you know I’m gone
Down To The Sea
Don't you know that you can go
And run down to the sea
We can laugh and run and sing
If you follow me
If you go down to the sea
You'll find that you can fly
You and I will skim the waves
But don't you wonder why
You'll be told the secrets
Of the ocean bold
Secrets true revealed to you
And secrets that you will hold
When you return up from the waves
Return but without me
And you will find somebody else
And run down to the sea
