Intro :           
 
 
  Sweet sur  render on t  he quay s  ide       
  You remem  ber we used t  o run and   hide     
In the s  hadows of cargoes, I ta  ke you on time,
  Counting all the numb  ers
Down to the waterli  ne
 
 
  Near misses   on the do  gleap stai  rways     
  French kisses   in the dar  kened doo  rways     
Foghorn b  lowing out wild and c  old
  A policeman shines    
A light upon my shou  lder
 
 
              
 
 
  Up comes   a coaster, f  ast and si  lent thr  ough the night
  Over my s  houlder, a  ll you can   see are   pilot lights
No money   in our jackets and jea  ns are torn
  Your hands are cold    
But your lips are w  arm

  She can s  ee you in t  he jetty w  here you   used to go
  She can   see you in t  he places   where the   sailors go
When she's   walking down the river   on the railway line
  She can still hear yo  u whisper
Lets go down to the   water line
 
Come on.
