From the recording Thief and Rescue
Lyrics
Taking the ferry while the fishermen sleep
Wind in your face
You are a candle
Night watchman asleep on his perch
You turn away
What was the question
I started to say
Let’s get lost
In a song
About nothing
Sung by no one
Can you hear?
Cause there’s nowhere
That I’d rather be
Shadows fall across the Washington bridge
You turn your head
I didn’t notice
It started to rain
Morning breaks and the seabirds cry
I’m drifting again
It’s never been easy
For me to explain
Let’s get lost
In a song
About nothing
Sung by no one
Can you hear?
Cause there’s nowhere
That I’d rather be
