Scenes From the Waterfront

from Faces by Jane Fallon

/

lyrics

Down on the waterfront I wanna go, taste the salt air, hear the wind blow,
who you might see well you just never know.
You might run into Marlon Brando.
Down on the waterfront, hand in hand, walkin' in a white-capped wonderland,
diggin' our toes into the gritty sand, down on the waterfront hand in hand.
Down on the beach I wanna play frisbee and volleyball all day.
Maybe catch a wave, that's okay. Down on the beach, I wanna play.
Down on the beach gonna have some fun
in the cool, cool water and the hot, hot sun.
Kickin' around and feelin' mellow like
Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello.
Down on the waterfront I wanna go,
taste the salt air, hear the wind blow,
who you might see well you just never know.
You might run into Marlon Brando.
Down on the pier in the misty mist,
leanin' on a lamp post, waitin' to be kissed.
Strange things happen, you might have guessed,
down on the pier in the misty mist.
Down on the pier some trench-coated guy with a tilted fedora and a sexy eye twitches his lips,
oh be still my heart, I just caught a glimpse of Humphrey Bogart.
Down on the waterfront I wanna go, taste the salt air, hear the wind blow,
who you might see well you just never know. You might run into Marlon Brando.
