Nocturne Lyrics
Billy Joel
When it rains
I watch the window
Golden dreams
Wash down the willow
Where are my Mardi Gras memories?
Under silver seas
Long cold nights
Change my reflection
Unsung songs
Show my direction
Where are my make believe victories?
Under silver seas
Ships pass over my head
Purple and blue, yellow and red
White sails catching the breeze
Sailing on silver seas
Once I lived
You might remember
Born in May
Died in September
Where are my carousel fantasies?
Under silver seas
