Through the spaces of an iron-ore train
The water eddies round the rushes
And Eddies round at my house, insane
The breakers in the distance
Cut the air like the crackle of a cb rig
They found a crack in Eddie
And they tore it down, and snapped him like a twig
His head is full of Goose Green
Tastes the smoke from the damp grass, well alight
And Eddie's waiting for the choppers
And he goes on waiting long into the night
And I thought I heard a voice
Didn't someone here just whisper, "Rejoice"
The harbour's filled with newsmen
Little boats go bobbing, like a Dunkirk repeat
To a train ride and a welcome
And "Well done, Eddie" right across the street
The water's grey and choppy
On the Lake out by the fairground big wheel
We could circle it forever
But we'd never guess the way that Eddie feels
Looking at the water Through the spaces of an iron-ore train The water eddies round the rushes And Eddies round at my house, insane The breakers in the distance Cut the air like the crackle of a cb rig They found a crack in Eddie And they tore it down, and snapped him like a twig His head is full of Goose Green Tastes the smoke from the damp grass, well alight And Eddie's waiting for the choppers And he goes on waiting long into the night And I thought I heard a voice Didn't someone here just whisper, "Rejoice" The harbour's filled with newsmen Little boats go bobbing, like a Dunkirk repeat To a train ride and a welcome And "Well done, Eddie" right across the street The water's grey and choppy On the Lake out by the fairground big wheel We could circle it forever But we'd never guess the way that Eddie feels Explain Request ×
