|
Lying on the beach with desire |
|
Rocking to the music of the waves |
|
I was in despair, my heart needed repair |
|
My lover had lied to me but |
|
I was bored by what I saw there |
|
Why? Why? Why? |
|
My father was a lighthouse keeper |
|
Watched the waves getting steeper |
|
Watched the ships going down |
|
In Cadillacs they sailed with the tide |
|
Beneath the pier the sea, she stroked the night |
|
I rocked a little then I moved my body again |
|
My lover kissed my lips |
|
I was digging what I saw there |
|
Why? Why? Why? |
|
My father was a lighthouse keeper |
|
Watched the waves getting steeper |
|
Watched the ships going down |
|
We watched the days slip by and the stars explode |
|
And we watched them once again |
|
Oh, the laughter rose a cheer |
|
Oh, the laughter so nice to hear |
|
Oh, the laughter so good and free |
|
Oh, the laughter so nice to see |
|
I lay among the shells and coke cans in my lover |
|
All the people were eating and smiling sadly in their big cars |
|
My father looked down from his lighthouse |
|
He saw it all he knew it all then he laughed a little |
|
Oh, so pretty |
|
Oh, so easy |
