On The Beachead

(album: Sunshine - 1977)

People I know worry 'bout their problems
Day after day as the night goes in
But you know you choose it or neglect it
It's all there if you want to

People worry about what you give them
'Cause they just don't know how to take
But you know that it's all partly written
It's an alibi we all make

Roman soldiers marching 'cross the bridge
Out of step 'cause they know it could fall
Lovers scream and lean upon the window
People laugh and just walk away

People worry about what you give them
'Cause they just don't know how to take
But you know that it's all partly written
It's an alibi we all make

Why do I have to tell you
How I feel when I look on your door
Why do I have to tell you
How it feels when you cry for more
I do
(And I do)
Seems I do
(And I do)

Everybody's got a secret
Everybody's got a tale to tell
Everybody's got a number
But I wonder what you're gonna do now

(And I do)
Oh I do
(And I do)
Seems I do
(And I do)
Oh I do
(And I do)

Everybody's got a secret
Everybody's got a tale to tell
Everybody's got a number
Ooh I wonder what you're gonna do now

Everybody's got a secret
Everybody's got a tale to tell
Everybody's got a number
And I wonder what you're gonna do now
