Van Morrison

In the cul de sac, so smooth

I look down

Be less sure, sir

And take your rest



It's been much too long

Since we drifted in song

Lay it down wet

In this hide-away



Oh I travelled far

To the nearest star

And met Palomar, ...mar..., mar...

And we don't care just who you know

It's who you are

And when they all go home

Down the cobblestones

You can double back (spoken This is it)

To a cul de sac

Mmm



Oh, I travelled far

The nearest star

And Mount Palomar, Palomar, Palomar, Palomar

And we don't care just who d'you know who d'you know

And who you really are, really are



And when they all,

All go home

Down the cobblestones

You will double back

To a cul de sac

You know, you know you will

You will, oh, will double back

And not very far

To a cul de sac

You, you, you... will double back

To a cul de sac

You know, you know it's not very far away

No, no

It's just a cul de sac



And you know, and you know, and you know... it's not very very far away,

No

It's just a cul de sac

Donn, donn, donn...

You're not very far away, No ohhh

It's not, it's not very far away

It's not as far as a country mile

(You got it)

It's just a cul de sac
