Salty river, falls asleep in the bay

Always gets there, never early, never late

Nothing's happening

Nothing's happening by the sea

White waves tumbledown

And gently roll back into blue

On wooden seats outside the bar

The couples make their rendez-vous

Nothing's happening

Nothing's happening by the sea

The trouble has been found

There's too far ups, and too many downs

I've found a level that feels just right

There's no mistaking where I'm going tonite

To nothing's happening

Nothing's happening by the sea
