On The Shoreline

Released as b-side of "i can't dance" single, 1991.





Well there's a place where two worlds collide

The pile of stone against the pull of the tide

You can stay with your feet on the ground

Or step into the water, leave the dry behind



On the shoreline

Meet me on the shoreline

Where you can only swim if you try



Well, if there's somewhere on the other side

It might be better, it might be as bad

Someday soon you'll have to make a move

Cos you can't stay forever, ah just waiting



On the shoreline (on the shoreline)

Meet me on the shoreline (on the shoreline)



Take me over, lead me through



Well can you take me there, to the other side

Where everything is new, uncertain and strange

Don't ever let me go till we're there

I don't know what it is i'm looking for

And until it's found i won't be sure...



Well, there are squares in the game of life

When you can keep on moving or turn aside

Yes, there are times when you have to decide

To put your feet in the water, or stay



On the shoreline (on the shoreline)

Meet me on the shoreline (on the shoreline)

Where you can only swim if you try

I'll be there - oh

On the shoreline (on the shoreline)

I'll be there on the shoreline (on the shoreline)

Where you can only swim if you try

I'll be there

I'll be there - oh

Yes, i'll be there

I'll be there...
