PAUL SIMON lyrics : "the coast"

A family of musicians took shelter for the night

In the little harbor church of St. Cecilia


Two guitars, bata, bass drum and tambourine


Rose of Jericho and the Bougainvillea




This is a lonely life, sorrows everywhere you turn


And that's worth something, when you think about it

That is worth some money


And that's worth something when you think about it


That is worth some money




A trip to the market, a trip into the pearl


Gray morning sunlight that settles over the Washington

A trip to the market a trip around the world


Where the evening meal is negotiable, if there is one




This is a lonely-lone, lonely life, sorrows everywhere you turn


And that's worth something when you think about it


That is worth some money

And that's worth something when you think about it


That is worth some money




To prove that I love you and because I believe in you


Summer skies, stars are falling all along the injured coast


And if I have money, if I have children

Summer skies, stars are falling all along the injured coast





Say oo-wah oo-wah doo-wop a doo-wah

Summer skies and stars are falling all along the injured coast


Oo-wah oo-wah doo-wop a doo-wah


Summer skies and the stars are falling




We are standing in the sunlight the early morning sunlight


In the harbor church of St. Cecilia

To praise a soul's returning to the earth


To the rose of Jericho and the Bougainvillea




This is the only light


And that's worth something when you think about it

That is worth some money


And that's worth something when you think about it

That is worth some money




To prove that I love you and because I believe in you

Summer skies, stars are falling all along the injured coast


And if I have money, if I have children

Summer skies, stars are falling all along the injured coast




If I have weaknesses, don't let them blind me now

Summer skies, stars are falling all along the injured coast

Oo-wah oo-wah, doo wop a doo wah


Summer skies and the stars are falling



Leaving the shadow on the valley behind me now


All along the injured coast

Ooh-wah oow-wah, doo wop a doo wah

Summer skies and the stars are falling all along the injured coast

Ooh-wah ooh-wah, doo wop a doo wah
