OKKERVIL RIVER - lost coastlines lyrics

Send "lost coastlines" Ringtone to your Cell

Packed and all eyes turned in
No one to see on the quay, no one waving for me
Just the shoreline receding.
Ticket in my hand and thinking wish I didn't hand it in.

Cause who said sailing is fine?
Leaving behind all the faces that I might replace
If I tried on that long ride,
Looking deep inside but I don`t want to look so deep inside yet.

Sit down, sit down on the prow to wave bye,
There might not be another star,
Farther on the line.
Look out, look out at each town that glides by,
And there's another crowd,
To drown in crying eyes.

And see how that light you love now
Just won`t shine,
There might just be another star,
That`s high and far in some other sky.

We sing, is that marionette
Real enough yet to step off of that set
To decide what a dance might mean to it.
Ruining the place where the ensuing may lay escape.

We packed up all of our bags
The ship's deck now sags from the weight of our tracks
As we pace beneath flags black and battered
Rattling our swords in service of some fated foreign war

We sail out on order of him
But we find that the maps he sent to us
Don't mention lost coastlines.
Where nothing we've actually seen has been mapped or outlined
And we don't recognize
The names upon these signs.

And every night finds us rocking and rolling on waves
Wild and wide,
Well we have lost our way,
Nobody's gonna say it outright.

Just go la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la la la
Ah-ah-aaaaaaaah

la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la la la
Oh-ah-ah-aaaaaaaah
Ooooooooooooh

La la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la la
etc....
