Bruce Cockburn - Down Here Tonight lyrics

Sweet wind blowing off the bay Sweeping the heat of the day away Making the leaves of the palm trees sway Down here tonight everything's okay Net's coming in and the anchor's down Hour of darkness comes around Stars dust the sky and the lights go on Soon tonight will be filled with song Pans gonna play and the fire burn bright Talking drums say everything's all right Beating of the sea sends a message To the far starlight "We're doing okay down here tonight" The end of the road's still far away But the travelling's better by the light of day This hour of darkness is the time to dance Lay down your burdens -- give the beat a chance Pans gonna play and the fire burn bright Talking drums say everything's all right Beating of the sea sends a message To the far starlight "We're doing okay down here tonight"
