Sausalito

Lyrics

Hair blowing in the hot wind
 Time hanging from a clothes pin
 There's no sorrow that the sun's not gonna help
 Smell the leather of your new car
 Drive through the desert after night fall
 Sleep on the shoulder keep the stars all to ourselves
 The kinda love that makes my back hurt
 Wearing nothing but a t-shirt
 She's turning over on a mattress made of air
 I close my eyes I see a stair case
 Leading upwards into blank space
 All of creation makes a sound too soft to hear
 So I remain between her legs
 Sheltered from all my fears
 While bikers glide by highway shrines
 Where pilgrims disappear
 I know that trouble's been your good friend
 Keep you company on the weekends
 Keep you company even once your mind was made
 Said it's over and it's finished
 Now a headache is all you're left with
 We're no different I got debts I'd like to pay
 We should move to Sausalito
 Living's easy on a house boat
 Let the ocean rock us back and forth to sleep
 In the morning with the sunrise
 Look in the water see the blue sky
 As if heaven has been laid there at our feet
 So we remain between these waves
 Sheltered for all our years
 While bikers glide by highway shrines
 Where pilgrims disappear
 Where time takes icebergs
 Where fields burn westward
 Where pilgrims disappear
