Faint Sound of Surf

Faint Sound Of Surf - Dylan Mondegreen

A breeze seeps in through my window sill

The curtains flutter i just lie still

As faint sound of surf awakens me

I fade out of the softest dream

Of girls with eyes of starry gleams

I don't want this day to come

Cause it feels like i am getting old way too fast

If you wonder why please don't ask

To stay indoors tonight would suit me fine

Cause it feels like every smile

Every glass of wine

Would bring me further from denial

I want nothing to remind me

It's my birthday

The morning paper holds nothing new

My coffee's black and so's my mood

But faint sound of surf keeps me awake

I don't intend to run out of steam

But i will cling to soft daydreams

Until this blue day is done

Cause it feels like i am getting old way too fast

If you wonder why please don't ask

To stay indoors tonight would suit me fine

Cause it feels like every smile

Every glass of wine

Would bring me further from denial

I want nothing to remind me

It's my birthday

I count the candles on my cake

And i burn them at both ends

Where do i go now where do i hide

Can i rise from this decline

To stay indoors tonight would suit me fine

Cause it feels like every smile

Every glass of wine

Would bring me further from denial

I want nothing to remind me

It's my birthday

It's my birthday
