Under a dark storm coming They found the car out in the lake A crowd had gathered on the shoreline Two tons of black on steel plate They put some chains all around it And a hoist up on the pier Hung above the surface like a prize catch Wriggling till the water disappeared You`ve gotta have a reason to be Gotta reason to be Gotta reason to be I`ve got my radio on The wind is blowing Everything is shining In the winter sun The winter sun Down on the beach one July morning Just as the dawn had hit the sand Sun caught her heels and summer cotton An extra rock out on the land Kids dropped their nets and ran over And saw the tears upon the skin And how her gold and pearl earrings Couldn`t stop the water coming in You`ve gotta have a reason to be Gotta reason to be Gotta reason to be I`ve got my radio on The wind is blowing Everything is shining In the winter sun I`ve got my radio on The wind is blowing Everything is shining In the winter sun Down on the beach one July morning Just as the dawn had hit the sand Sun caught her heels and summer cotton An extra rock out on the land An extra rock out on the land An extra rock out on the land
