The fog is on a chainless wind

I'm outside your door again

I've got a broken record in my hand

The rivers breakin' up you know

I came to tell you adios

I don't expect you to understand

But I can hear the water falling off the dam

This town is full of last week news

Summer dreams and winter blues

The rattle around like an old tin can

Lovers parked down by the water

Farmers sons, bankers daughters

Their little worlds spinning in their hands

But I can hear the water falling off the dam

My silhouettes are tellin' me

I'm the not man I used to be

My intuitions danced across the sand

Icicle's drip off your soffits

I had a dream but I lost it

I guess she figured they were only plans

Could you hear the water falling of the dam

Your soft shoes and your catholic graces

Your angels and your powdered faces

Your sadness, all those one night stands

Make believe reservations

To make believe destinations

It seems so much bigger than I am

I can hear the water falling off the damn

Can't you hear the water falling off the dam

Baby, the waters falling off the dam
