Merlin (Everybody Knows) - Detour City, Newman

PYONG!

He came round on a Tuesday

Knocked twice on the door

Come in, wipe your feet on the floor

She said «who are you?»

He said «it's me»

«Oh, you better come in and I’ll make you a cup of tea»

He said «a man has died at sea»

«I've got to ask you some questions»

And everybody knows why you were there

You tied up at the same quay, back in 1963

And everybody knows why you might lie

Been living on the dark side, the past is but another life

He said «we know you were there that day»

«Did you ride on a boat called Merlin?»

«Did you party on the beach that night?»

«Was anything, did everything feel right?»

She said «I don’t appreciate you here anymore»

«My husband of those years has gone before»

Ride on a boat called Merlin
