Everything's okay

Walks along the dock

With some sailor's pay

Shoved down in his sock

Everything's okay

With some little boy in blue

Who don't know you like I do

Everything's okay

Took him back to town

Well, I didn't get paid today

So I'm in the lost and found

And I wonder if that clown

Knows just what to do

What to say and what not to

The pretty words that you whispered

Maybe I misunderstood

Somebody's not paying attention

What they promised and their word isn't good

Everything's okay

I'm looking for you now

Down here by the bay

Where the water pounds

Up against the wall

That I'm coming to

Because I can't stay away from you

I don't need no satisfaction

And I don't take just because I can

Sometimes I get a strong impression

That you just don't understand

That kind of man

Everything's okay

I can see your face

Down there in the waves

Painted and erased

But I'm told it's just

The reflection of the moon

A big fake resembling you

I'm going to go down in the water

And fill my mouth up full of sand

And I'll be waiting still impatient

With my dead imagination

While you're with some other man

Everything's okay

I'll be with you soon

I'm walking out to place

My arms around the moon

Yeah, I'll be with you soon

Just as soon as I pay

I'll walk across the water

Everything's okay

Walk on the water

Everything's okay
