Up into the universe I cast my line
Standing on top of the rolling hillside
I'm waiting for a sign
Watching for your eyes
I know I'll be here all night
Starfishin' for you
Wishing that it weren't true
You've taken a shine
To someone new
A crawfish, a sunfish a lightening bug goes by
Starlight and sea foam my washed up valentine
The nets came up empty the last kiss was thrown
The poor dog up in the sky lost his bone
chorus
Just when I thought my ship had come in
You went and spoiled everything
I'm gonna cry an ocean of tears
I'll sail away the rest of my years
chorus
Seaweed and moonbeams
A shipwreck of bad dreams
Sand dunes and sea grass
Galileo's face in his beer glass
The clock is callin' to you
The night has fallin' for you
The whole world is turned upside down
chorus
