Sparks – Let's Go Surfing Lyrics

Rock

Rain is pouring down
In our land-locked town
Skies are always grey
Let's go surfing, babe
Somewhere there is hope
Somewhere there are dreams
Far from soot and smoke
Let's go surfing, babe

Tonight, as we look at the moon and the stars
From our room with security bars
There's a westerly wind that is
Blowing both our minds and both our feet
Walk through sand that's as white as the snow
Past the people named Kelly and Joe
Who have nothing in common with
Anyone we know, we know they're

Too Wagnerian
Too Shakespearean
Too impossible
Let's go surfing, babe
Somewhere there is hope
Far from everything
Far from misanthropes
Let's go surfing, babe

Tonight from our room only Dickens could love
Wearing moth-eaten sweaters and gloves
We will open the window and
Feel an on-shore wind a-blowing in
Grab our boards from the back of our van
Paddle out 'til we can't see the sand
Spin around and drop into
The wave we hope will never end

Somewhere there is hope
Somewhere there are dreams
Far from everything
Let's go surfing, babe

Tonight, grab our boards from the back of our van
Paddle out 'til we can't see the sand
Spin around and drop into
The wave we hope will never end

(Catch a wave, a wave, a wave)
(Catch a wave, a wave, a wave)

Somewhere there is hope
Somewhere there are dreams
Far from everything
Let's go surfing, babe
Somewhere there is hope
Somewhere there are dreams
Far from everything
Let's go surfing, babe
