The surface is shadow
The sky billows
With a thousand lights I don't know
Ripple of water
Is bringing me under
In the afterglow
This golden ship
She's warn and she's torn
Like this golden heart
She's weathered the storm
So many that the next one will tear her apart
I drink in the sea
At the first sight of lady liberty
She's rollin' them dice
Smoke in her eyes
Oh she cannot see
And I'm thinking of you
And what will I do
With my dollar a day
I'll send it on home
'Cuz my heart is a stone
'Til you come and stay
Oh oh
'Til you come and stay
Oh oh
'Til you come and stay
Oh oh
'Til you come and stay
Oh oh
Her purpose is shadow
And her skirt billows
In a thousand nights I don't know
The crippled daughter
Is bringing me under
In the afterglow
And this golden dream
She's warn and she's torn
Like this golden heart
She's weathered the storm
So many
That the next one will tear her apart
I drink in the sea
At the first sight of lady liberty
She's rollin' them dice
Smoke in her eyes
Oh she cannot see
And I'm thinking of you
And what will I do
With my dollar a day
I'll send it on home
'Cuz my heart is a stone
'Til you come and stay
Oh oh
'Til you come and stay
Oh oh
'Til you come and stay
Oh oh
'Til you come and stay
Oh oh
The city is shadow
The sky billows
With a thousand lights I don't know
Ripple of water
Is bringing you over
In the afterglow
And this golden ship
She's warn and she's torn
Like this golden heart
She's weathered the storm
So many
That the next one will tear her apart
