Fire Island (Phases) Songtext
von Lee Ranaldo

Every time I look up, I smile and see your pretty face
I can′t help but feeling we're living in a state of grace
Today the sun is shining, it′s never gonna fade away
The sky on the water is brightening, don't think it all of yesterday
Was it something I said back to you?
Was I wrong in the head, escaping the truth?


Every time I look up and step into your mirror today
The little morning woke up to clear the air up, as a sage would say
Mirrors can deceive but this time I'm sure I′m seeing straight
Because this lonely feeling is falling to the game
Was it something I said back to you?
Was I wrong in the head, escaping the truth?

Everybody is here again, back on the island hanging out
Everybody is on the mend, everybody is all played out
The water is such a mirror today, another thought in our head
The past is the past, it all fades away as the sun turns red
Am I here again? Wherever we′re home
You'll be my friend again when we′re all alone
You can't, you can′t take this spirit home
We're either here in the summer end
Or somewhere out on the road
