get wet - morton street lyrics

[verse 1]
sharp knife shivers, only by the river
fighting with the tide
bar lights, small talks, kneeling on the sidewalk
nowhere else to hide

[verse 2]
i walked in, i sat down
i had a double gin, my heart started to pound
soft lights, i wasn’t seen
but there were so many young boys trying to look so mean
then he smiled, my only hopes went wild
i painted my lips for the usual scene
i put some change in the box, he played the pinball machine

[verse 3]
shattered pier light, ships asleep for all night
helpless in his hands
lips touch so right, his shoulders stop the cold night
sinking to the sand

[pre+chorus]
and every night since then
we meet down at the pier at a quarter to ten
but an hour ago on the telephone, he said
“goodbye, i’m gonna leave you alone”
[chorus]
he said, “don’t go down on the pier tonight
there’s a boat sailing out on a mirror of moonlight
i gotta do what’s right, i’m goin’ back to the boys tonight”
and i said, “don’t go down on the pier
the way they’ll break your heart, cruising your only life away
won’t you try to stay? you know there’s always another way”

[instrumental break]

[pre+chorus]
and every night since then
we meet down at the pier at a quarter to ten
but an hour ago on the telephone, he said
“goodbye, i’m gonna leave you alone”

[chorus]
he said, “don’t go down on the pier tonight
there’s a boat sailing out on a mirror of moonlight
i gotta do what’s right, i’m goin’ back to the boys tonight”
and i said, “don’t go down on the pier
the way they’ll break your heart, cruising your only life away
won’t you try to stay? you know there’s always another way”

[bridge]
don’t go (don’t go), don’t go (don’t go)
don’t go (don’t go), don’t go (don’t go)
don’t go (don’t go), don’t go (don’t go)
don’t go (don’t go), don’t go (don’t go)
don’t go (don’t go), don’t go (don’t go)
don’t go (don’t go), don’t go (don’t go)
don’t go (don’t go), don’t go (don’t go)
don’t go (don’t go)
go, go, go, go, go
[chorus]
don’t go down on the pier tonight
there’s a boat sailing out on a mirror of moonlight
i gotta do what’s right, i’m goin’ back to the boys tonight
and i said, “don’t go down on the pier
the way they’ll break your heart, cruising your only life away
won’t you try to stay? you know there’s always another way”
don’t go down on the pier tonight
there’s a boat sailing out on a mirror of moonlight
i gotta do what’s right, i’m goin’ back to the boys tonight
and i said, “don’t go down on the pier
the way they’ll break your heart, cruising your only life away
won’t you try to stay? you know there’s always another way”
don’t go down on the pier tonight
there’s a boat sailing out on a mirror of moonlight
i gotta do what’s right, i’m goin’ back to the boys tonight
