Marie-Lynn Hammond - Distant Early Warning Line lyrics
he sits in front of the radar screen watching the signal, watching the planes go pulsing across, leaving their tracks of light theres a buddy on the line now from Byron Bay hes probably lonely but hed never say hes just looking for some kind of comfort in this twenty-four hour night they call it defending the country he calls it saving up money dont quite know what hes saving for but as soon as hes got just a little bit more hell be going outside for good chorus: but look out that you dont get caught now cause some find their way back but some do not you gotta watch for the warning signs on the Distant Early Warning Line oh he hasnt seen a woman in five or six months not since that night down in Cambridge Bay she took him by surprise but oh lord it was all right well its not the getting laid that you miss so much its just someone to hold you, someone to touch you ah what hed give to be held now in this black and frozen night well theres always the telephone but whats the use, hed still be alone he tries to focus on the screen, only to find that girl is moving like a track of light across his mind, leaving him blind chorus and on leave he heads for the west coast to the rolling blue Pacific he lets the waves crash over his body under a burning summer sky but at night he dreams of silence and a vast and frozen ocean stretching white to the horizon and he dont know why and hes scared that he might be caught now cause some find their way back but some do not they say dreams are a warning sign on the Distant Early Warning Line you gotta watch for the warning signs on the Distant |
