Dead Man's Beach

spring tide
i'll be washed up on the shoreline
the tide is out dear
and i'm left exposed
riptide
i tried to swim against the riptide
i couldn't get in to you
so i drowned i suppose
high tide
i'll be smashed against the quay side
will you recover me love
and throw out a rope

Baited Hooks

heading down to the sea
just you and me
we're gonna throw out a line
we baited all our hooks
walked to the edge just to have a look
waiting for the tide to turn
because in the summer
the summer time
you know its all right
to stay out all night
heading down to the beach
we'll get the sand under our feet
gonna catch some waves
as the sun sets we think to ourselves
is this the best it gets?
then we see the fireworks explode in the sky
because in the summer
the summer time
you know its all right
to stay out all night
the kids are still on the street
playing hide-and-seek but they can't catch me
the trees are still full of leaves
the street light shines through them
like memories

Airport Glass
04:13
|

we left before the summer end
just before the autumn begins
we left before the loneliness
fell down and covered everything
we said goodbye through airport glass
waited for another four years to pass
we thought of you from time-to-time
you sadness never on our mind
across the ocean against the waves we're living
while your turf pile shrinks and your deep in depression
across the sea in tv land we're living
while the HSE has got you full of lithium
bill drives the local kids to school
then milks the cows on his stool
winnie goes to BINGO with friends
while bill sits home and pretends
he's still in england on a site
eating fish and chips on friday night
but the oldest had to do his part
take the farm or break their hearts
across the ocean against the waves we're living
while your turf pile shrinks and your deep in depression
across the sea in tv land we're living
while the HSE has got you full of lithium

Creep Into Winter
03:50
|

he days are getting shorter
ever since the clocks turned back
the wind is getting colder
i can feel it on my back
lily is getting taller
with every passing week
we just threw out her hunters
they did't fit on her little feet
i don't want you to change
as we creep into winter
i know you want to grow up you want to change
i didn't expect you to feel the same
her vocabulary is expanding
with every book she reads
I can feel her getting stronger
when we wrestle on our knees
she want to grow up and be an explorer
and discover new things
feels like it was just the other day
when mummy fixed her fairy wings
i don't want you to change
as we creep into winter
i know you want to grow up you want to change
i didn't expect you to feel the same
