Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm down by the fire
At the oceanside
Just waiting for that underwater world to say good night
[Verse 2]
Don't you hear that sound?
From the tide and sand
They'll tell us to keep rowing and rowing if we can
[Verse 3]
So I've learnt to keep my head in this lazy wonderland
[Verse 4]
Well you had to know that I had to know
The tricks for us not to be found out
There's a place we can go
The trip is on, but we can find a way
[Verse 5]
(Tonight we'll go)
Laughing all the way, my love
(Tomorrow we'll go)
Back in time to live today
[Verse 6]
To all the men who ride
In the morning light
Lying stubborn at the ending of another lonely night
[Verse 7]
And I've misplaced my mind, don't know how or why
And when it wAnders back, I hope it's still a friend of mine
[Verse 8]
Well, you had to know that I had to know
The tricks for us not to be found out
And there's a place that we can go
The trip is on but we can find a way
[Verse 9]
(Tonight we'll go)
Laughing all the way, my love
(Tomorrow we'll go)
Back in time to live today
