Home by the Sea

Home by the sea
Home by the sea
Home by the sea

Creeping up the blind side
Shinning up the wall
Stealing through the dark of night
Climbing through a window
Stepping to the floor
Checking to the left and the right
Picking up the pieces
Putting them away
Something doesn't feel quite right

Help me someone
Let me out of here
Then out of the dark
We suddenly heard,
"Welcome to the home by the sea."

Coming out the woodwork
Through the open door
Pushing from above and below
Shadows but no substance
In the shape of men
Round and round and sideways they go
Adrift without direction
Eyes that know despair
Then as one they sigh and they moan,

"Help us someone
Let us out of here
Living here so long undisturbed
Dreaming of the time we were free
So many years ago
Before the time when we first heard,
'Welcome to the home by the sea.'"

Sit down, sit down
Sit down
Sit down
Sit down
As we relive our lives
In what we tell you

Images of sorrow
Pictures of delight
Things that go to make up a life
Endless days of summer
Longer nights of gloom
Waiting for the morning light
Scenes of unimportance
Photos in a frame
Things that go to make up a life

Help us someone
Let us out of here
Just living here so long undisturbed
Dreaming of the time we were free
So many years ago
Before the time when we first heard,
"Welcome to the home by the sea."

Sit down
Sit down
Sit down, sit down
Sit down
Sit down
As we relive our lives
In what we tell you
Let us relive our lives
In what we tell you

Sit down, sit down
Sit down
'Cause you won't get away
No with us you will stay
For the rest of your days
Sit down
As we relive our lives
In what we tell you
Let us relive our lives
In what we tell you
Oh...
