Home By The Sea Second Home By The Sea Lyrics

Creeping up the blind side

Shinning up the wall

Stealing through the
dark of night

Climbing through a window

Stepping to the floor

Checking to the left and the right

Picking up the pieces

Putting
them away

Something doesn't feel quite right



Help me
someone, let me out of here

Then out of the dark was suddenly heard

Welcome to the home by the sea



Coming out of the woodwork

Through the open door

Pushing from above and below

Shadows but no
substance

In the shape of men

Round and down and sideways they
go

Adrift without direction

Eyes that hold despair

Then as
one they sign and they moan



Help us someone, let us out of
here

Living here so long, undisturbed

Dreaming of the time we were
free

So many years ago

Before the time when we first heard

Welcome to the home by the sea



{Refrain}:

Sit down, sit
down, sit down

Sit, down, sit down

As we relive our lives 

In
what we tell you



Images of sorrow, pictures of delight

Things
that go to make up a life

Endless days of summer

Longer nights of
gloom

Waiting for the morning light

Scenes of unimportance

Photos in a frame

Things that go to make up a life



Help us
someone, let us out of here

'Cause living here so long undisturbed

Dreaming of the time we were free

So many years ago

Before the
time when we first heard

Welcome to the home by the sea



{Refrain}



Let us relive our lives

In what we tell you



Sit down, sit down, sit down

'Cause you won't get away

No,
with us you will stay

For the rest of your days, sit down

As we
relive our lives 

In what we tell you

Let us relive our lives

In what we tell you
