about

Dire Straits' cover

lyrics

Sweet surrender on the quay side,
you remember we used to run and hide
In the shadows of cargoes, I take you on time,
Counting all the numbers down to the waterline

Near misses on the dogleap stairways,
french kisses in the darkened doorways
Foghorn blowing out wild and cold
A policeman shines a light upon my shoulder

Up comes a coaster, fast and silent through the night
Over my shoulder, all you can see are pilot lights
No money in our jackets and jeans are torn,
your hands are cold but your lips are warm

She can see you in the jetty where you used to go
she can see you in the places where the sailors go
when she's walking down the river on the railway line
she can still hear you whisper, let’s go down to the waterline, come on
