Save me from drowning in the sea   Beat me up on the beach      What a lovely holiday   There's nothing funny left to say      This sombre song would drain the sun   But it won't shine until it's sung      No water running in the stream   The saddest place we've ever been      Everything I touched was golden   Everything I loved got broken   On the road to Mandalay   Every mistake I've ever made   Has been rehashed and then replayed   As I got lost along the way      There's nothing left for you to give   The truth is all that you're left with   Twenty paces then at dawn   We will die and be reborn      I like to sleep beneath the trees   Have the universe at one with me   Look down the barrel of a gun   And feel the Moon replace the Sun      Everything we've ever stolen   Has been lost returned or broken   No more dragons left to slay   Every mistake I've ever made   Has been rehashed and then replayed   As I got lost along the way      Save me from drowning in the sea   Beat me up on the beach   What a lovely holiday   There's nothing funny left to say
