Lyrics

summer nights
intertwined
tongue-tied and glassy-eyed
a halo of detail forgotten right away

sea lions and sanderlings
hover near the arcade
magicians and fire dancers
shakedown easy change
barges in the distance
wait outside the bay
the lighthouse on the hillside
skimming off the waves
crashing like the gods
for whom the heavens are named
locked in an eternal struggle
beyond our fleeting days
