Shorley Wall

No tears from a summercloud
 Til off the shore the stars come rolling out
 As the voices fade
 Tired of bad advice she whispers,
 "Ooh, watch the moon
 Can't you see? This is me."
 Shorley Wall
 She's selling seashells up on Shorley Wall
 Where the ocean swells and leaves you small
 She's selling seashells up on Shorley Wall
 Just watch the moonrise up on Shorley Wall
 Who could ask for more?
 If life is an open book
 She'd rather read the pictures for a while
 Let the bastards moan
 'Cause where she falls, she falls
 and she says,
 "Ooh, give me time
 I need to find
 Who I am inside."
 Shorley Wall
 She's selling seashells up on Shorley Wall
 Where the ocean swells and leaves you small
 She's selling seashells up on Shorley Wall
 Just watch the moonrise up on Shorley Wall
 Who could ask for more?
 Can you see
 The moonlight
 Like a chandelier across the ocean where the mermaids sing?
 Take your shoes off
 And step into the ocean on the path of light
 "Like a broken arrow
 I'll catch the tail wind and draw the clouds
 Burning sugar
 As black as smoke
 It clothes the walls
 I open my heart
 She sings when she hurts
 It's good to sink deep inside
 To my only touchstone
 She's a friend in the dark
 My strength, my memories
 She delights in torture
 She holds my hand but never shields me
 Because the best shield is to accept the pain
 Then what can really destroy me?
 Let me close my eyes and lie invisible
 And perhaps the clouds will pass through me."
