Mark Knopfler - Beachcombing lyrics
Your rating:
(feat. Emmylou Harris) They say there's wreckage washing up all along the coast no-one seems to know too much or who got hit the most nothing has been spoken there's not a lot to see but something has been broken that's how it feels to me we had a harmony i never meant to spoil now it's lying in the water like a slick of oil the tide is running out to sea under a darkening sky the night is falling down on me and'im thinking that i should head on home been gone too long leave my roaming beachcombing little wild kitten out hunting to see what he can get you're in a big city now that won't stop growing yet the sun is going down smoking a flaming testament something has been broken and it feels permanent little seabird flying he knows where he wants to go guess i ought to pack my stuff and do the thing i know i turn around and head on back along the old sea wall i felt something give and crack and now i'm sorry thats'all head on home been gone too long leave my roaming beachcombing (Thanks to Paolo for these lyrics)
