Everybody’s out tonight, It’s such a restless sight
I hear the bums on bended knee call out to me
I smell the cheap gins, Dripping down their chins
And no one looks up at all to see the sky

Then like a shuttle I’m off in space
I’m trying to find a quiet place
Hanging on to a shooting star
In my mind I go so far
When I come back down
Like a feather without a sound
I’ll be in a quiet place

I see you charge on in, It’s a war you’ve got to win
I hear the words cut so deep that I can’t sleep
I smell tequila and tittie bars, The fumes from fast cars
And I’m too far down to see the sky

CHORUS

Bridge: I won’t let the noise around
Deafen me and bring me down
I’ll take that long sweet ride

Cause it’ll be the beach I see, The seagulls flying free
And the waves I hear, crashing on the pier
It’s the sea I smell, Salt taffy and caramel
The flashing of a shiny fin,  fish jumping up and diving in
The bright silvery moon lighting up the sky

	CHORUS
