Across the street the river runs 
                       
Down in the gutter life is slipping away 
                 
Let me still exist in another place, 
                                    
Running down under cover Of a helicopter blade 

                            
The flames are getting higher, in effigy 
                         
Burning down the bridges of my memory 
                  
Love may still alive somewhere someday 
                                                  
where they're downing only deer, a hundred steel towns away 

                    
Oh, rhythm of my heart is beating like a drum 
                                        
with the words "I Love you" rolling off my tongue 
                   
No never will I roam, for I know my place is home 
                                      
Where the ocean meets the sky, I'll be sailing 

             
Photographs and kerosene
                  
light up my darkness,light it up, light it up 
                             
I can still feel the touch of your thin blue jeans 
                                                  
Running down the alley, I've got my eyes all over you, baby, Oh, baby 

                    
Oh, rhythm of my heart is beating like a drum 
                                        
with the words "I Love you" rolling off my tongue 
                   
No never will I roam, for I know my place is home 
                                                    
Where the ocean meets the sky, I'll be sailing  (I'll be sailing) 

...Oh, yeah... 

                       
Oh, I've got lightning in my veins,
                           
shifting like the handle of a slot machine 
                   
Love may still exist, in another place. 
                                              
I'm just yanking back the handle, no expression on my face. 


== Chorus 3x ==

                    
Oh, rhythm of my heart is beating like a drum 
                                        
with the words "I Love you" rolling off my tongue 
                   
No never will I roam, for I know my place is home 
                                      
Where the ocean meets the sky, I'll be sailing

ENJOY...
