Under a dark storm coming

They found the car out in the lake

A crowd had gathered on the shoreline

Two tons of black on steel plate

They put some chains all around it

And a hoist up on the pier

Hung above the surface like a prize catch

Wriggling till the water disappeared



You`ve gotta have a reason to be

Gotta reason to be

Gotta reason to be



I`ve got my radio on

The wind is blowing

Everything is shining

In the winter sun

The winter sun



Down on the beach one july morning

Just as the dawn had hit the sand

Sun caught her heels and summer cotton

An extra rock out on the land

Kids dropped their nets and ran over

And saw the tears upon the skin

And how her gold and pearl earrings

Couldn`t stop the water coming in



You`ve gotta have a reason to be

Gotta reason to be

Gotta reason to be



I`ve got my radio on

The wind is blowing

Everything is shining

In the winter sun

I`ve got my radio on

The wind is blowing

Everything is shining

In the winter sun



Down on the beach one july morning

Just as the dawn had hit the sand

Sun caught her heels and summer cotton

An extra rock out on the land



An extra rock out on the land



An extra rock out on the land
