The Walkmen - On The Water lyrics

All the windows are glowing The branches bending low The skyline is swinging Rocking back and forth Walking down this dirt road Watching at the sky It's all I can do It's all I can do All the years keep rolling The decades flying by But ahh, the days are long So here's one to the pigeons The tugboats on the river Here's one to you For walking in my shoes, ah Oh, you know I'd never leave you No matter how hard I try You know I'd never leave you And that's just how it is Oh, everybody sees right through Oh, the static That is, dear, everyone but you Oh, it's funny to think it through Everybody... that is, dear, everyone but you
