Paroles

This is the way it was
While I was waiting for your eyes to find me
I was drifting
Going no place
Hypnotized by sunshine, maybe
Barking back at seals along the beach
Skipping flat stones on the water
But much too wise for sand castles
My castles were across the sea
Still within my mind
There were the beach bars
The other beach people
Sometimes little bedrooms were my beach
But I was drifting
I must have thought the night could save me
As I went down into pillows
Looked up through dirty windows
Smiled back from broken mattresses
Turned in thunderbirds and kissed in elevators
I cried too sometimes
For me, I guess
I loved every face I thought looked pretty
And every kindred eye I caught in crowds
But I was drifting
Before you
