St. Peter's Bay

Can we get the ocean to freeze over? Sandy banks of snow across the road Keep the full moon high over your shoulder But keep the puck low We don't want to go looking for it In the headlight's glow We played til frozen Until the battery ran low Until the call of home came calling, calling Across the air on the wires of wood smoke Oh I miss you tonight in St Peter's Bay And I'll miss you in the morning Still we had a good skate, didn't we babe I couldn't get the fire Of my faith in us Warm enough to comfort your cold feet Every little crack in the ice Seemed to be enough To make you think you might go under So stay to the shore Wonder some more Reconsider every direction The ice out here's black Only thing looking back Is my own reflection Oh I miss you tonight in St Peter's Bay And I'll miss you in the morning Still we had a good skate, didn't we babe Tides will shift And ice will lift And creeks will run again with their thundering And no more I'll be an island An island adrift In an ocean of endless wondering Oh I miss you tonight in St Peter's Bay And I'll miss you in the morning Still we had a good skate, didn't we babe
