When the moon dissolves into the sky Like the shine in your dilated eye Miles from me sobriety stands With a hammer in his hand And we roll down the street like a pair of coins That fell from the place where your jeans are torn And you smile at me with your wine-stained teeth and say Let's take the train To a quiet place i know where we can be alone Where the shore meets the sea meets the sun And although we should be tired The day has just begun Well the train doors close and we collapse As my head sinks down onto your lap And we're talking about nothing just to keep From falling asleep Well the ringing in my mind is amplified From the music of the night and that stuff we tried But retreating is the feeling Like the tide that's no longer high Just three stops to go Till we're out on the road Where the shore meets the sea meets the sun And although we're winding down it's clear The day is young Well we stare at the sun and talk about How long it will be until it burns out When its fire retires will be Be around to see For all we know it could be that day And if it is i hope its final ray Kisses your eyelids before we are shown to the door Lay your head down in my hands Among the diamonds in the sand Where the shore meets the sea meets the sun And we drift into dream The day carries on
