On the Beach (Live) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The world is turning
I hope it don't turn away
The world is turning
I hope it don't turn away
All my pictures are falling
From the wall where I placed them yesterday
The world is turning
I hope it don't turn away

[Verse 2]
I need a crowd of people
But I can't face them day to day
I need a crowd of people
But I can't face them day to day
Though my problems are meaningless
That don't make them go away
I need a crowd of people
I can't face them day to day

[Verse 3]
I went to the radio interview
But I ended up alone at the microphone
I did thе radio interview
But I was alone at thе microphone
Now I'm living out here on the beach
But those seagulls are still out of reach
I went to the radio interview
But I was alone at the microphone
[Verse 4]
Get out of town
I think I'll get out of town
Get out of town
Think I'll get out of town
Head for the sticks with my bus and friends
Follow the road though I don't know where it ends
Get out of town
Think I'll get out of town
'Cause the world is turning
I don't wanna see it turn away

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
