"(Sittin' On) The Dock Of The Bay" lyrics
"(Sittin' On) The Dock Of The Bay"
Sittin' in the mornin' sun
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' comes
Watchin' the ships roll in
Then I watch 'em roll away again
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time
I left my home in Georgia
And headed for the 'Frisco Bay
'Cause I got nothin' to live for
Looks like nothin's gonna come my way
Just sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time
Looks like nothin's gonna change
Everything seems to stay the same
I can't do what ten people tell me to do
So I guess I'll remain the same
Sittin' here restin' my bones
And this loneliness won't leave me alone
Two thousand miles I roamed
Just to make this dock my home
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Watchin' the tide roll away
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wastin' time

Lenny Kravitz - "Johnny Cash" I need you love in every way
I need your strength to make me great
I've been so wrong
Am I too late?
Just hold me like Johnny Cash
When I lost my mother
Whisper in my ear
Just like June Carter
And...
Robbie Williams - "The Road To Mandalay" Save me from drowning in the sea
Beat me up on the beach
What a lovely holiday
There's nothing funny left to say
This sombre song would drain the sun
But it won't shine until it's sung
No water...
Paul Carrack - "Groovin'" Groovin'... on a Sunday afternoon
Really couldn't get away too soon
I can't imagine anything that's better

There ain't a place I'd like to be instead of...
Simply Red - "Sunrise" As I look into your eyes I see the sunrise
The light behind your face helps me realise
Will we sleep and sometimes love until the moon shines
Maybe the next time I'll be yours and maybe you'll...
