My
coat is buttoned against the weather as the North Sea breakers roar
The
wind blows as it’s blown forever against this Norfolk shore
And
with all the miles still left to cover I suppose that I should go
But
there’s sunlight on the water and before I turn for home
I’ll
take a walk on Cromer Pier and watch the seafront lights appear
As
the night begins to fall
Though
to watch the sun go down behind the rooftops of this seaside town
Is
bound to make me wish that you were here
On
Cromer Pier
From
the window of a New Street café I can see the waves roll in
Oystercatchers
and seagulls flying, wheeling in the wind
And
the theatre and the lifeboat station and the people walking by
And
the sunlight on the water and the colour of the sky
So
I’ll take a walk on Cromer Pier ...
There’s
nothing but the raw power of the waves
And
the changes in the light at the dying of the day
I
know I should be leaving but something keeps me here
Looking
out across the water on Cromer Pier
My
coat is buttoned against the weather as the North Sea breakers roar
The
wind blows as it’s blown forever against this Norfolk shore
There’s
a boat out in the distance where the water meets the sky
And
nothing else for miles except the weather and the tide
So
I’ll take a walk on Cromer Pier...
