FAINT SOUND OF SURF
|
a breeze seeps in through my window sill
|
the curtains flutter, i just lie still
|
as faint sound of surf awakens me
|
|
i fade out of the softest dream
|
of girls with eyes of starry gleams
|
i don't want this day to come
|
|
cause it feels like i am getting old way too fast
|
if you wonder why, please don't ask
|
|
to stay indoors tonight would suit me fine
|
cause it feels like every smile
|
every glass of wine
|
would bring me further from denial
|
i want nothing to remind me
|
it's my birthday
|
|
the morning paper holds nothing new
|
my coffee's black, and so's my mood
|
but faint sound of surf keeps me awake
|
|
i don't intend to run out of steam,
|
but i will cling to soft daydreams
|
until this blue day is done
|
|
cause it feels like i am getting old way too fast
|
if you wonder why, please don't ask
|
|
to stay indoors tonight would suit me fine
|
cause it feels like every smile
|
every glass of wine
|
would bring me further from denial
|
i want nothing to remind me
|
it's my birthday
|
|
i count the candles on my cake
|
and i burn them at both ends
|
where do i go now, where do i hide
|
can i rise from this decline?
