Point Vicente

Lyrics

She swings on the front porch
 and sweeps her days into an empty sky
 of a dream drowned in the rain
 out where the land is as flat as the sea
 there's a train pulling out west
 and a box of money stashed under the bed
 up through the pines
 and down into the city of light
 where the world spins on a string
 the weave of lovers weave meet their fate
 down by the sea falls in love with the sailor who keeps the light house
 storm comes in, smashes the shore
 the sailor's duty comes calling
 begging and pleading as she falls to the floor
 she's left waiting
 she waits at the front
 her husband come wrapped around her
 where she fell the stoop in the night
 (...) all alone for months at a time
