Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Ease your feet off in the sea
My darling, it's the place to be
Take your shoes off, curl your toes
I will frame this moment in time
Troubles come and troubles go
The trouble that we used to know
Will stay with us till we get old
Will stay with us till somebody decides to go
Decides to go
[Verse 2]
Soberly, without regret
I make another sandwich and I
Fill my face
I know that things have got to you
But what can I do?
Suddenly, without a warning
On a pale blue morning
You decide your time is wearing thin
A conscious choice to let yourself go dangling
[Chorus]
Hovering
It's an emergency
There's no more "wait and see"
[Verse 3]
Maybe if I shut my eyes
Your trouble will be split between us
People come and people go
You're scouring everybody's face
For some small flicker of the truth
To what it is that you are going through, my boy
I left you dry
The sign was clear that you were not going anywhere
[Chorus]
Anywhere
Save for a falling down
Save for a falling down
Anywhere
Anywhere
Save for a falling down
Everything's going wrong
[Verse 4]
Later on, as I walked home
The plough was showing, and Orion
I could see the house where you lived
I could see the house where you gave
All your time and sanity
To people then you waited for the
People to acknowledge you
They spoke in turn
But their eyes would pass over you
[Chorus]
Over you
Who's seeing you at all?
Who's seeing you at all?
