lyrics

There's a hole in the sea
That is just my size
Slung over a chair with a room service smile
Oh my best laid scheme with
A tide calling out for my feet

From nowhere
To a little farther from nowhere
I rode in on the back of a bus
No-one knew me but us

I guess I looked out of place
In a sun-drenched town all lily pale-faced
Suit and a tie; a kid asked me why
I still had my shoes on
Down on the beach, ice-cream running down their hands

From nowhere
To a little farther from nowhere
I rode in on the back of a bus
No-one knew me but us

The moon murmurs nightly
And the moon murmurs nightly here lies
The moon murmurs nightly
And the moon murmurs nightly
Are you sure you won't give it just one more try?
