|
Rain is pouring down |
|
In our land-locked town |
|
Skies are always gray |
|
Let's go surfing, babe |
|
Somewhere there is hope |
|
Somewhere there are dreams |
|
Far from soot and smoke |
|
Let's go surfing, babe |
|
Tonight as we look at the moon and the stars |
|
From our room with security bars |
|
There's a westerly wind that is blowing both our minds |
|
And both our feet |
|
Walk through sand that's as white as the snow |
|
Past the people named |
|
Kelley and |
|
Joe Who have nothing in common with anyone we know |
|
We know they're |
|
Too Wagnerian |
|
Too Shakespearian |
|
Too impossible |
|
Let's go surfing, babe |
|
Somewhere there is hope |
|
Far from everything |
|
Far from misanthropes |
|
Let's go surfing, babe |
|
Tonight, from a room only |
|
Dickens could love |
|
Wearing moth-eaten sweaters and gloves |
|
We will open the window and feel an on-shore wind |
|
A-blowing in |
|
Grab our boards from the back of our van |
|
Paddle out 'til we can't see the sand |
|
Spin around and drop into the wave we hope will never end |
|
Somewhere there is hope |
|
Somewhere there are dreams |
|
Far from everything |
|
Let's go surfing, babe |
|
Tonight, grab our boards from the back of our van |
|
Paddle out 'til we can't see the sand |
|
Spin around and drop into the wave we hope will never end |
|
Catch a wave, a wave, a wave |
|
Catch a wave, a wave, a wave |
|
Somewhere there is hope |
|
Somewhere there are dreams |
|
Far from everything |
|
Let's go surfing, babe |
