Lyrics The Coast (Work-In-Progress) (Bonus Track) - Paul Simon

This is the echo world, the echo world
The first song, that lullaby of heartbeat of the coast
This is the circle and the circle it rises in the morning mist
And rolls along the coast

This is a lonely life
Sorrow everywhere you turn, turn, turn

And that's worth something when you think about it
That is worth some money
That's worth something when you think about it
That is worth some money

A trip to the market
A trip into the pearl
Gray morning sunlight that settles over Washington
A trip to the market
A trip around the world
Where the evening meal is negotiable
If there is one

This is a lonely life
Sorrow everywhere you turn, turn, turn

And that's worth something when you think about it
That is worth some money
That's worth something when you think about it
That is worth some money

But so strong to love, you don't think about it
So strong to love
But so strong to love, you don't think about it
So strong to love

To prove that I love you because I believe in you
Summer skies, stars are falling
All along the injured coast
If I have money, if I have children
Summer skies, stars are falling
All along the injured coast, sayin'

Oo-wah-oo-wah, oo-wah-oo-wah
Summer skies and stars are falling
All along the injured coast
Oo-wah-oo-wah, oo-wah-oo-wah
Summer skies and stars are falling
All along the injured coast

Sheets of rain tore down the rooftop
Send machine gun of the beach
Drunken pop, she's fell into the wireing
Faith is an island beyond the sailor's reach
Put the edges of the century retiring

This is the only life

And that's worth something when you think about it
That is worth some money
That's worth something when you think about it
That is worth some money

So strong to love, you don't think about it
So strong to love, you don't think about it
So strong to love, you don't think about it
So strong

To prove that I love you because I believe in you
Summer skies, stars are falling
All along the injured coast
If I have money, if I have children
Summer skies, stars are falling
All along the injured coast
If I have weaknesses don't let them blind me
Summer skies and stars are falling
All along the injured coast, sayin'

Oo-wah-oo-wah, oo-wah-oo-wah
Summer skies and stars are falling
All along the injured coast, I'm
Leaving the shadow of the valley behind me
Summer skies and stars are falling
All along the injured coast, sayin'

Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
Mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm
