lyrics

there is a hole
nearby the water
when cold wind strips
the beaches bare
if you are wise
and you look closely
you’ll find my heart
is hiding there

i am alive
on certain evenings
i am a ghost
most every night
you may not hear
my come and goings
but you may see
a distant light

it’s scratched and bruised
but never broken
it’s never seen
the light at all
and i have learned
i don’t much need it
but still i wish
that it might call

the beach will flood
the sand go rushing
and wash my poor, cold heart to sea
and i will feel
my white face blushing
and hope a new one comes to me

and so i sit
here in this cold room
i try to keep
it out of mind
and wonder where
my heart will go to
and would it be
that hard to find
