Girl At The End Of The Pier

歌詞

As the twilight was returning And the sun began to fall I walked down to the beachfront And watched the whitecaps roll A flare exploded over the ocean an orange tear Then I saw at the corner of my eye The girl at the end of the pier She stood and stared at the brightness, Glowing and complete In her crinoline and lacing With the wood beneath her feet She walked in splinters shedding the salt of a single tear Who will fill up the vacuum inside her The girl at the end of the pier The toffee apples strewn on the pavement The candy floss sticks to the tar The organ grinder's monkeys Been freed from enslavement He ran beneath the wheels of a family car The toffee apples strewn on the pavement The candy floss sticks to the tar The organ grinder's monkeys Been freed from enslavement He ran beneath the wheels of a family car Now the funfair is shut down And the coconut shy is gone A carousel spins on regardless And the big wheel creaks and groans No one saw her run to the railing and disappear One more drop in an unfeeling ocean, The girl at the end of the pier One more drop in an unfeeling ocean, The girl at the end of the pier Girl at the end of the pier Girl at the end of the pier
