What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Dawn, he's in a postcard of the dawn,
2
Where the knives of light
3
have left the dark night tattered & torn.
4
The firmamental cars
5
on the highway of the stars
6
are doing ninety (for your love) -
7
He's in a corner on the right -
8
the sole survivor of the night -
9
& it's you he thinking of.
10
And you, you only think of him,
11
dropping him a line
12
'cos he's got no time to swim.
13
They're closing all the doors
14
to his existential shores -
15
they'll leave him naked & alone -
16
& you can't help him now,
17
he's in the waters of the South -
18
sinking like a stone...
19
Running from the snapping jaws,
20
You know he ain't got time
21
to pause - there's one last door
22
between him & you - look out babe,
23
he'll be coming through (as soon as you admit that you're the cause).
24
Gone, with a squad of crooked creatures -
25
You saw a film of his escape
26
But you hardly recognized his features.
27
His seer's sight had lied
28
about the other side
29
no-one was waiting when you arrived.
30
You dared not hesitate -
31
even so, you got there late -
32
Who takes who for one last ride???
