Thomas Dolby Cloudburst at Shingle Street Lyrics

We climb the cliffs
We came from trees
Wrap the rocks
We pave the beach
A state of shock at flick of switch

(mindless) into the cloudburst overhead
I wanna get my face wet
Its been buried in the sand for years

(headlong) into the cloudburst naked
There's really no escaping it
There's gonna be a cloudburst here

Come out of your shell
And look at the sea
It may be just as well
You stayed here with me
Private hell at turn of a key

(blindly) into the cloudburst overhead
I wanna get my face wet
Its been buried in the sand for years

(mindless) into the cloudburst naked
There's really no escaping it
There's gonna be a cloudburst here

(headlong) into the cloudburst overhead
I wanna get my face wet
Its been buried in these hands for years

(blindly) into the cloudburst naked
there's really no escaping it
there's gonna be a cloudburst here

And it's dawning on me
I've been a cork in the ocean
Been bobbing in the North Sea
Then take this vest of plaster
These boots of concrete
And mark them down as surplus
Return to Mulberry...

Cloudburst at Shingle Street
Cloudburst at Shingle Street
Cloudburst at Shingle Street

When I was small
I was in love
In love with everything
And now there's only you

Yeah...
And now there's only you
Oh...
