ALONG THE PIER

Bumpers (2017). Lyrics by Dan Zlotnick

​

Egg shells crack beneath our feet

Foam forms the lips of the sea

What did you say?

Tell me what you really mean

Feet move mountains in the sand

Along the pier you take my hand

Put your bag down

Hold me like you never planned

Build a castle, moats surround

We’re the only souls around

Tell me what you want

But please don’t make a sound

In our chamber we will lay

Castle’s ashes here to stay

Give me all you have

And I will do the same
