Said The Whale - The Banks Of The English Bay Lyrics

I've been around

But I've only been around

For a short while



I've seen it all

Seen all that I can

On TV



That's where the war begins

That's where the art comes to an end



Now here we are

Standing on the shoreline

Looking out at the city



And jumping in

Because someone's gotta

Test the water this year



That's where my memory ends

Setbacks in art, science

And the discoveries keep coming in and

Setbacks keep coming in

Is that truth in the science?



One step in the right direction

Won't change the world, but it's a start

Someone's gotta see the good in everything

That there's more than the start to think about

That's where the art comes out

That's where the truth of the heart comes out



That's where my memories lay

On the banks of the English Bay

Beneath the treeline cityscape

The grey sky and the falling rain
