lyrics

Stay away from the window
Keep your eyes on the sand white ceiling
Demand more than Maybe
Before you're left alone and waiting

She's the sailor and you're the lady
On the walk pacing and praying
Smell another change in the air
And you might just go crazy

If you say you're coming back I'll believe you

Give yourself to the summer sun
Cool water helps when you're overdone
A million questions asked on this beach
You should ask me one don't you think

The body works past exhaustion
Does the mind know what it cost you
The city lights are in your eyes
Stop complaining it's a living

If you say you're coming back I'll believe you

What about your friend the solider
On a cruise away from his lady
She's home with their brand-new baby
She knows all about waiting

If you say you're coming back I'll believe you

This lantern won't burn out
So find your way back home
