Hooded sky coming down, hear the waves all around the disappearing light On a beach all alone, far away, far from home, you catch a veil of white in the darkness Was that the ghost of Innes Street ? You saw a flash of her eyes You feel the shiver head to feet, all over On that night, long ago You let her down, let her go You chose another girl So she walked in the sea & has waited there patiently for the day that youd unfurl in the darkness Was that the ghost of Innes Street ? You saw a flash of her eyes & feel the shiver head to feet, all over Swore with her eyes burning, "Ill be here when you're returning" Swore with her eyes burning, "Ill be here when youre returning, Youll know my pain" "You love the day, drawn like bees to sunshine, just another man who took it all, a honey thief in good times, then up & ran away to her & left me here with nothing Such a shallow love & now you're here gasping deep for something Covered up above" "You're drowning in my bold sea & you can't leave & you finally know the truth Oh my love well pick violets in the country now were one here, like the promise of my youth" "Oh you've found me & you're drowning in my bold sea & you cant leave & you finally know the truth Oh my love well pick violets in the country now were one here, like the promise of my youth"
