Dire Straits - Down To The Waterline

Dire Straits

Down To The Waterline

Sweet surrender on the quayside
You remember we used to run and hide
In the shadow of the cargoes I take you one time
And we're counting all the numbers down to the waterline

Near misses on the dogleap stairways
French kisses in the darkened doorways
A foghorn blowing out wild and cold
A policeman shines a light upon my shoulder

Up comes a coaster fast and silent in the night
Over my shoulder all you can see are the pilot lights
No money in our jackets and our jeans are torn
Your hands are cold but your lips are warm

She can see him on the jetty where they used to go
She can feel him in the places where the sailors go
When she's walking by the river and the railway line
She can still hear him whisper
Let's go down to the waterline

Mirror lyrics:

Let's go down to the waterline
She can still hear him whisper
When she's walking by the river and the railway line
She can feel him in the places where the sailors go
She can see him on the jetty where they used to go

Your hands are cold but your lips are warm
No money in our jackets and our jeans are torn
Over my shoulder all you can see are the pilot lights
Up comes a coaster fast and silent in the night

A policeman shines a light upon my shoulder
A foghorn blowing out wild and cold
French kisses in the darkened doorways
Near misses on the dogleap stairways

And we're counting all the numbers down to the waterline
In the shadow of the cargoes I take you one time
You remember we used to run and hide
Sweet surrender on the quayside
