MANCHESTER REVISITED

I drift like a shipwreck helplessly
looking for rescuing ships
clinging to inflatable hope-gones
clinging to your hips
waves going high
the grip 'round your thigh
horizon blue
like the story of me and you

Anchor me, baby
Harbor us, babe
Find us the waters
that's calm and safe
Anchor me, baby
Baby, anchor me !

Sometimes strangers treat you right
sometimes they give you a glare
walking the streets with you, babe
really makes me scared
try to be strong
what's going on
future is scorn
hope is not yet to be born

Where's this road leading do you know?
I whisper to myself
a new friend gives me a brandy
- as if a drink would help
streetlights are dim
but under my brim
visions of you
glows like headlight on full

Anchor me, baby
Harbor us, babe
Find us the waters
that's calm and safe
Anchor me, baby
Baby, anchor me !!

Too many people here millions it seems
don't lose me in this spell
too afraid to speak my name loud
got no story to tell
rolling all right
suddenly light
lifting me up
wishing it never stop

Anchor me, baby
Harbor us, babe
Find us the waters
that's calm and safe
Anchor me, baby
Baby, anchor me !

So what goes up sometimes goes on
longer than you would believe
to fall in your arms would be good, babe
find us a safe retreat
get us a boat
I'm a sailor, you know
a millionaire too,
but I spent it looking for you

Anchor me, baby
Harbor us, babe
Find us the waters
that's calm and safe
Anchor me, baby
Baby, anchor me !!! :))
