Coast -

Another stone rolled through your doorway

And broke every bone, ooh

And I knelt at your feet, the throne of your sorrow

And crown of your need, ooh

Every night you call me from a foreign phone

Barely even hear me when you get me alone

My love

Last night when I was sleeping

I had a dream my body was a boat

In the mouth of an angry harbor

At the lip of an unfamiliar coast

Could not explain on waking

How you were the cape of setting hope

Couldn’t paint it in pictures, darling

I only wanted you to know

I couldn’t say it though

You’re making a mess, you cut up the curtains

For your evening dress, ooh

We danced like we did, like children who don’t know

What modesty is, ooh

And when we’re done spinning like an errant moon

Curl up on the carpet like you’re missing the

You can take your battles to the king of the sea

I’ll be right behind, you can count on me

My love

Last night when I was sleeping

I had a dream my body was a boat

In the mouth of an angry harbor

At the lip of an unfamiliar coast

Could not explain on waking

How you were the cape of setting hope

Couldn’t paint it in pictures, darling

I only wanted you to know

Last night when I was sleeping

I had a dream my body was a boat

In the mouth of an angry harbor

I only wanted you to know

I couldn’t say it though
