[Pre-Chorus]
I'm looking to be by a window
That looks out on the sea
Anybody here know
Where such a place is?

[Chorus]
Surf of golden sunlight
Breaking over me
Man of a thousand faces

[Verse 1]
In the garden paths take form
But the hailstorm guards its own
Things forbidden, things unknown
You must travel on alone

[Verse 2]
In memoriam friends come round
But the hard ground holds its own
Time for pulling, time to ride
It's my turn but where's the guide?

[Verse 3]
On the jetty shadows lie
And the gulls cry once or twice
Swelling thunder, truth is hid
Behind the glass eye of the idol
Anybody here know
Where such a place is?
[Pre-Chorus]
You know, these city towers
Jewels on the serpent's crown
Twist the space between them
Till every eye is blinded

[Chorus]
Lord will you trade your sunlit ocean
With its writhing filigree
For any one of my thousand faces?
