Bruce Cockburn Down Here Tonight Lyrics

Down Here Tonight Lyrics

Sweet wind blowing off the bay Sweeping the heat of the day away Making the
leaves of the palm trees sway Down here tonight everything's okay 



Net's coming in and the anchor's down Hour of darkness comes around Stars
dust the sky and the lights go on Soon tonight will be filled with song 



Pans gonna play and the fire burn bright Talking drums say
everything's all right Beating of the sea sends a message To the far starlight
"We're doing okay down here tonight" 



The end of the road's still
far away But the travelling's better by the light of day This hour of darkness
is the time to dance Lay down your burdens -- give the beat a chance 



Pans gonna play and the fire burn bright Talking drums say everything's all
right Beating of the sea sends a message To the far starlight "We're doing okay
down here tonight"
