Out On the Rolling Sea

I love to see skeleton trees flash by on my dashboard
 And hear them electric trains a-hummin
 And the lights pulse in flight like they're under my fingers
 But the angel was found on the rollin' sea
 We kept the beat down in the middle of the road
 But played with the heart of a brawler
 Out of the blue I punched through to the heart of another
 An angel out on the rollin' sea
 Oooh ooh ooh
 The water keeps on rollin'
 And I know
 It's far we're bound to roam
 Ooh ooh ooh
 The water keeps on rollin'
 And I know
 Someday we'll be rollin' home
 My luck it needed some tenderising
 Someone to take this hammer and beat it down
 Just swing that thing around, bring it down like Polly Ann
 An angel out on the rollin' sea
 Oooh ooh ooh
 The water keeps on rollin'
 And I know
 It's far we're bound to roam
 Ooh ooh ooh
 The water keeps on rollin'
 And I know
 Someday we'll be rollin' home
 One night I woke from a nightmare of great sadness
 And found her there in my arms again
 Still eyes that pierce right through the breathless madness
 And put me right every now and then
 I love to see foreign lands flash by my window
 Some pretty as a picture and wounded by their time
 From Morocco's injured streets to the Spanish island
 Where fire heaved like blood in the heart of the land
 And ashes turned to glass at the hands of the healing
 Where the harbour lights are warm and fall like tears
 They switched those gears and pushed into the night
 And I played not for the turnout but for the years
 That brought her from the fire heart still burning
 And the angel out on the rollin' sea
 Yea the angel out on the rollin' sea
