Walk To The Water
She said it wasn't cold, she left her coat unbuttonedShe wore canvas shoes, white canvas shoesAround her neck she wore a silver necklace'It was given to me by my father' she said'It was given to me'She took the back way home past the lights at SummerhillTurned left on to the north strand and on, out towards the seaHe said he was an artist but he really painted billboardsIn large capital letters, in large capital lettersHe was telling jokes, nobody else would listen to himI saw you that day, your lips were cherry redYour legs were crossed, your arms wide openYour hair was coloured goldAnd like a field of corn you were blown by the windYou were blown by the wind
Walk, walk, walk to the waterWalk with me awhileWalk, walk, walk to the roadsideWalk with me in a light
A room in the Royal hotel, the sea facing viewsA man with a suitcase full of things he doesn't needI'm looking through your windowI'm walking through your doorwayI'm on the outside, let me inLet me love youLet me love youLet me
Walk, walk, walk to the waterWalk with meWalk, walk, walk to the roadsideWalk with me a while
