Album: Beachcomber's Windowsill

Six a.m.
you left me for the last time
On my doorstep
blinking in the sunshine
Blamed and framed
I'm frozen in the picture
Hanging in the space you left inside me

Climbed upstairs into the final scene
Waiting for the credits to appear
For all the years that I've been starring

Starring in a film with you and leading
Leading with a star I knew but I'm waking up
In a long beam of light where the dust is dancing
As the music fades

On my way out
for the very last time
Off my doorstep
straight into the sunshine
Walking west and following the coastline
Looking for a sea change

You led me here when the world began
And the breakers shook the moonlit sand
Saw your pale face shining through the spray
And I was blown away
With the feeling I was starring

Starring in a film with you and leading
Leading with a star I knew but I'm waking up
In a long beam of light where the dust is dancing
As the music fades
