ziegler co. - waking up at sunset lyrics
waking up at sunset
in a seaside town
treading water in the river
where the sorrows come to drown
sugar-leg eric’s there
with a girl on his knee
and he whispers over to me
‘they call her
“ask-me-once marie”‘
in the back of a blacked-out taxi
she will live up to that name
sweet valentine
of mine
i’m gonna roll along
this contra-flowing
barely-rolling
ocean of time
an optimist would say
the place was quarter full
the lights a quarter on
and the staff a quarter beautiful
dezza climbs a lamp post
and quest climbs a bank
there’s never quite the stamina
at the lip of the pickled tank
it’s just easier to song to
where the viper fish lay
when you’re waking up at sunset
and sleeping through the day
sweet valentine
of mine
i’m gonna roll along
this contra-flowing
barely-rolling
ocean of time
they’re sweeping up the high street
where the crooked statue bows
to an anaemic dog-sh-t sunrise
leaning against the clouds
but when it starts to tumble
the statue starts to groove
the rings inside his pint gl-ss
count the years he’s had removed
and somehow, the moon
it radiates more light
when you’re waking up at sunset
and sleeping through the night
sweet valentine
of mine
i’m gonna roll along
this contra-flowing
barely-rolling
ocean of time
