and we have fun we go laughing and running
down to the water, there by the sea
where the body just floats like a rowboat
and the moons like a harbor light lit in this sky
and this pictures got a woman who looks like you
and a guy who looks just like someone Ive seen
when it turns out - I hope that it turns out
I hope that it turns out the way that you dreamed
embarcadero train stations empty
and I just cannot believe how long it takes
all the way home through the city
and everyones looking - least, its nice to believe everyones looking
this pictures got a woman who looks like you
and a guy who looks just like someone Ive seen
when it turns out, I hope that it turns out
I hope that it turns out the way that you dreamed
ghostly faces at my living-room window
they are not scared of me 'cause they know I cant hurt them
they press up and see, in the lamp-glow
all of the hurt and the love inside of me
its their final duty
to see right through me
twelve hours 'til the dawn
but weve got to hold on, hold on to me...
because well be running
down to the water this morning
well, nobody waits for you to believe
in ghosts, lit by moonlight or dawning
or in this picture of you and me
