New Model Army - Wipe Out lyrics

This is where we go to - to the blue of the ocean On the 30 westbound to the diamond water Lost out in the white waves - salt purification Bright eyes and breathless - this is how Love feels Wash away the black stuff, wash away the road-dirt In the thrill of the wipe-out, feel it pulling you under This is where it saved your life in the days of the new beginning All the sweet redemption lines that you wrote and told a thousand times This is where we go to - to the blue of the ocean On the 30 westbound to the diamond water On the back-lanes down to the sea we pulled to the side of the road Danced together in the headlights beam to the songs on the radio Cheek to cheek . . . We're up on the cliff tops as the dusk falls and the wind drops down, the last of the light fading in the sky out to the west; and far out to sea, the water glows iridescent, perfect, like a promise of warm water in the shallows, cold water out in the deep, splashing on my face and rolling over, over, over . . .
