Spindrift Lyrics by Rush

The Studio Albums (1989-2007)

2007

[Verse 1]
As the waves crash in
On the western shore
The wind blows fierce from the east
Wave tops torn into flying spin-drift, spin-drift

As the waves crash in
On the western shore
It makes me feel uneasy
The spray that's torn away
Is an image of the way I feel

[Chorus 1]
What am I supposed to say?
Where are the words to answer you
When you talk that way?

[Verse 2]
As sun goes down
On the western shore
The wind blows hard from the east
It whips the sand into a flying spin-drift, spin-drift
As the sun goes down
On the western shore
It makes me feel uneasy
In the hot dry rasp of the devil winds
Who cares what a fool believes

[Chorus 1]
What am I supposed to say?
Where are the words to answer you
When you talk that way?
Words that fly against the wind and waves

[Chorus 2]
A little closer to you
Where is the wave that will carry me
A little closer to you?
Where is the wave that will carry me

[Chorus 1]
What am I supposed to say?
Where are the words to answer you
When you talk that way?
What am I suppose to do?
Where are the words that will make you see
What I believe is true?
Where is the wave that will carry me

[Chorus 2]
A little closer to you?
Where is the wave that will carry me
A little closer to you?
Where is the wave that will carry me
A little closer to you?
Where is the wave that will carry me
A little closer to you?
