Dragon - Bondi Road

from the album "Bondi Road" (1989)

somewhere not far from here
there's a road leading down a hill
the houses and the traffic lights
and time is standing still

come on let's take a ride
the moon's in the clear blue sky
people running everywhere
trying to beat the light

we'll turn the tide
I know that more than anything
the time and place are right

the sprinklers are on the green
and papers wrap around your feet
the sound of crashing waves comes in
wind blows from the east

down on the empty beach
and all along the promenade
the fires of sunset burning
the summer tide is turning

sixteen steps are leading to the beach
and sixteen doors are open wide

we'll turn the tide
the sun goes down on Bondi Road
and we can say goodnight

sixteen waves will break upon the sand
and sixteen steps lead us down to the water

we'll turn the tide
the sun goes down on Bondi Road
and we can say goodnight
we'll turn the tide
I know that more than anything
the time and place are right
we'll turn the tide...
