On The Dunes
Drive along the seaFar from the city's twitch and smoke
To a misty beach
That's where my life became a joke
On the dunes
On the dunes
[Became a joke on the dunes]
Where rents are high
And seabirds cry
On the dunes
As you spoke you must have known
It was a kind of homicide
I stood and watched my happiness
Drift outwards with the tide
On the dunes
On the dunes
[Homicide on the dunes]
It wasn't fair
It's brutal there
On the dunes
Pretty boats
Sweeping along the shore
In the faltering light
Pretty women
With their lovers by their side
It's like an awful dream
I have most every night
In the summer all the swells
Join in the search for sun and sand
For me it's just a joyless place
Where this loneliness began
On the dunes
On the dunes
[Loneliness on the dunes]
I'm pretty tough
But the wind is rough
On the dunes
