Sit down my love of all good spaces And breathe my love let's all be spent I'm going to tell you both a story About some memories that I dreamt
See I've lost love in many places Not least the streets of san paolo And friends especially, I didn't make them A ten floor window to her home Sometimes I could cry for miles Sometimes I could cry for miles Sometimes I could cry for miles But I don't
So hush the shadows in the oak tree Be still you curl upon the moor My heart has fallen upon the wayside I cannot claim her anymore So don your duffel coats quite slowly And this sad jury has ajurned While on the streets of old san paolo I watch my baby being burned
Sometimes I could cry for miles Sometimes I could cry for miles Sometimes I could cry for miles But I don't
Sometimes I could cry ah sometimes Drop my bags and run for miles And sometimes I could live my life But I wont, but I won't
Have you ever been thrown across the water Have you ever been thrown across the water Have you ever been thrown across the water Till there's no skin left on your bones
Thrown across water Thrown across water Thrown across water Like a stone
Get me a doctor Get me a doctor Who will get rid of my bones
Get me a lover Get me a lover Who will leave my head alone
Get me a soldier Get me a soldier Who will fight me in this war
Get me an exit I need an exit I need a window or door
Thrown across water Thrown across water Thrown across water Like a stone
Get me a lawyer Get me a lawyer Who will sue the world for me
Get me a person Get me a person Get me a person Who isn't me
Cuz I'm getting tired I'm getting tired Of my stupid little face
Cuz I don't belong here I don't belong here Don't belong in this horse race
Thrown across water Thrown across water Thrown across water Like a stone
