On The Shoreline — текст песни (Genesis)

Released as b-side of "i cant dance" single, 1991.





Well theres a place where two worlds collide

The pile of stone against the pull of the tide

You can stay with your feet on the ground

Or step into the water, leave the dry behind



On the shoreline

Meet me on the shoreline

Where you can only swim if you try



Well, if theres somewhere on the other side

It might be better, it might be as bad

Someday soon youll have to make a move

Cos you cant stay forever, ah just waiting



On the shoreline (on the shoreline)

Meet me on the shoreline (on the shoreline)



Take me over, lead me through



Well can you take me there, to the other side

Where everything is new, uncertain and strange

Dont ever let me go till were there

I dont know what it is Im looking for

And until its found I wont be sure...



Well, there are squares in the game of life

When you can keep on moving or turn aside

Yes, there are times when you have to decide

To put your feet in the water, or stay



On the shoreline (on the shoreline)

Meet me on the shoreline (on the shoreline)

Where you can only swim if you try

Ill be there - oh

On the shoreline (on the shoreline)

Ill be there on the shoreline (on the shoreline)

Where you can only swim if you try

Ill be there

Ill be there - oh

Yes, Ill be there

Ill be there...
