Paroles de Deep Water

We used to go down to the beach at night,
Fireflies dancing in the promenade lights,
Oh, those rock 'n roll bands used to really swing,
And I'd do the foxtrot with sweet Christine,
She'd speak to me with her gentle hands,
And we'd fly on down to Wonderland;


Deep water, I'm caught up in its flow,
If I'm in over my head, I'd be the last to know
Deep water

They closed down the doors of the Trocadero,
And I came back looking just like a ghost,
The posters are scattered all over the stairs,
Nobody reads them so nobody cares,
The kids all retired when they reached twenty-one,
But that really just ain't my idea of fun


Deep water, I'm caught up in its flow,
If I'm in over my head, I'd be the last to know
Deep water

Sitting out on the Palm Beach Road,
I'm so drunk and the car won't go, Sure as hell ain't peace of mind
