lyrics

Night and day in no set order
There's moonlight in the water
Sable sea and me
A sparkle in the black

Night and day and no set warning
There's sunlight in the morning
Silver sky and I'm
Just hanging at the back

Waves they break like glass
The heatwave bakes the grass
And seagulls bark
Candy floss clouds doing
Two hundred miles an hour after dark
Through the windy world I breeze
Shedding my soul like leaves
Hey won't you please
Drift a while with me

Night and day cut to ribbons
I'm going where the rainbow
Shows no blue and you
Are on my wavelength band

Night and day I can't explain it
I'm going where the clocks are
Turning back on the shore
Buried in the sand

My feet are worn down to stumps
And my toes are curled
Motorcars are wingin' and alarms are ringin'
Through the windy world
And should I get blown away
Over, under, either way
Would the moonlight in the water blow or stay?
