Surf Song

We found a quiet a corner
and quiet? by the bar
you told me of your life
and what had brought you here
and we watched the easing tide.

You asked me of my past
and told you all the truths
I kept hidden inside
what did I have to lose?
we continued into the night.

You said you would not hear
of my life spent with some lady
you cut deep in my heart
but you barely even scratched me
but I smile and say it's early days.

And i do all I can
to keep my life moving on
moving on

You took off all your clothes
and you dived into the sea.
I took all those photos, I swore no one should ever see
and i joined you in the surf.

One the cold had done it's worst
we retired back inside
we drank to our future
and those we'd leave behind
may they get what they deserve.

Now we're stuck in some city
with it's smoke and it's mirrors
your mind on your bite
The trace of your fear
and i wonder what the hell am I doing here.

Slow as I am
I recognised in you
the chance for something great
a chance I could not lose
cause what else in life is there?

And i do all I can
to keep my life moving on
moving on.
