You're in love with an 18-year-old
You can't tie a tie and you're stuck on a boat
Drifting to sea
Drifting to sea
You can't be caught if you're never around
There's always somewhere to hide in this town
You manage to find a place for the night
Manage to sleep like an innocent child
Uh
From city to city I follow your trail
You live for as long as your stories can keep you from falling
Off the edge of the world
The edge of the world
Till it all blows up in the air
It seems like your world is doomed to disappear
But then, in a new town, you hear of a guy
Who's got a lot of nerve
And who can't tie a tie
A fire is burning on the shore somewhere
The heavy winds are gathering their powers
There's a song in your heart going on every beat
And you just wanna sleep like an innocent child
Uh
