Home By The Sea/Second Home By The Sea |
Creeping up the blind side, shinning up the wall |
stealing thru the dark of night |
Climbing thru a window, stepping to the floor |
checking to the left and the right |
Picking up the pieces, putting them away |
something doesn’t feel quite right |
Help me someone, let me out of here |
then out of the dark was suddenly heard |
welcome to the Home by the Sea |
Coming out the woodwork, thru the open door |
pushing from above and below |
shadows but no substance, in the shape of men |
round and down and sideways they go adrift without direction, eyes that hold despair |
then as one they sign and they moan |
Help us someone, let us out of here |
living here so long undisturbed |
dreaming of the time we were free |
so many years ago |
before the time when we first heard |
welcome to the Home by the Sea |
Sit down Sit down |
Sit down Sit down Sit down |
as we relive our lives in what we tell you |
Images of sorrow, pictures of delight |
things that go to make up a life |
endless days of summer longer nights of gloom |
waiting for the morning light |
scenes of unimportance, photos in a frame |
things that go to make up a life |
Help us someone, let us out of here |
cos living here so long undisturbed |
dreaming of the time we were free |
so many years ago |
before the time when we first heard |
welcome to the Home by the Sea |
Sit down Sit down |
Sit down Sit down Sit down Sit down |
as we relive out lives in what we tell you |
let us relive out lives in what we tell you |
Sit down Sit down Sit down |
cos you won’t get away |
no with us you will stay |
for the rest of your days — Sit down |
As we relive our lives in what we tell you |
Let us relive our lives in what we tell you |
