Lyrics
Across the street, the river runs
Down in the gutter, life is slipping away
Love may still exist in another place
Running undercover of a helicopter blade
The flames are getting higher in effigy
Burning down the bridges of my memory
Love may still be alive somewhere, some day
Where they're downing only deer
A hundred steel towns away
Oh, the rhythm of my heart
Is beating like a drum
With the words "I love you"
Rolling off my tongue
No, never will I roam
For I know my place is home
Where the ocean meets the sky
I'll be sailing
Photographs and kerosene
Light up my darkness, light it up, light it up
I can still feel the touch
Of your thin blue jeans
Running down the alley
I've got my eyes all over you baby, oh baby
Oh, the rhythm of my heart
Is beating like a drum
With the words "I love you"
Rolling off my tongue
No, never will I roam
For I know my place is home
Where the ocean meets the sky
I'll be sailing
Oh, I've got lightning in my veins
Shifting like the handle of a slot machine
Love may still exist in another place
I'm just yanking back the handle, no expression on my face
Oh, the rhythm of my heart
Is beating like a drum
With the words "I love you"
Rolling off my tongue
Oh, never will I roam
For I know my place is home
Where the ocean meets the sky
I'll be sailing
The rhythm of my heart
Is beating like a drum
With the words "I love you"
Rolling off my tongue
Never will I roam
For I know my place is home
Where the ocean meets the sky
I'll be sailing
