She said it wasn't cold
She left her coat at home that day
She wore canvas shoes, white canvas shoes
Around her neck she wore a silver necklace
"It was given to me by my father." she said
"That was given to me."
She took the back way home
Passed the lights at Summer Hill
Turned left on to the North Strand and on
On towards the sea.

He said he was an artist
But he really painted billboards
In large capital letters
In large capital letters
He was telling jokes
Nobody else would listen to him

I saw you that day, your lips of cherry red
Your legs were crossed, your arms wide open
Your hair was coloured gold
And like a field of corn
You were blown by the wind
You were blown by the wind

Walk, walk, walk
To the water
Walk with me a while
Walk, walk, walk
To the roadside
Walk with me
In the light

A room in the Royal Hotel
With sea-facing views
A man with a suitcase
Full of things he doesn't need
I'm looking through your window
I'm walking through your doorway
I'm on the outside let me in
Let me love you
Let me love you
Let me

Walk, walk, walk
To the water
Walk with me
Walk, walk, walk
To the roadside
Walk with me a while
