Midnight on the water
I saw the ocean's daughter
Walking on a wave she came
Staring as she called my name
And I can't get it out of my head
No, I can't get it out of my head
Now my old world is gone for dead
'Cos I can't get it out of my head
Breakdown on the shoreline
I can't move, it's an ebbtide
Morning don't get here till night
Searching for her silver light
And I can't get it out of my head
No, I can't get it out of my head
Now my old world is gone for dead
'Cos I can't get it out of my head, oh, no, no
Day job in a city
Robin Hood and William Tell
Ivanhoe and Lancelot
They don't envy me, yeah
Sitting as the sun goes down
In dreams the world keeps spinning round and round
'Cos I can't get it out of my head
No, I can't get it out of my head
Now my old world is gone for dead
'Cos I can't get it out of my head, no, no
