Drowning on Dry Land / Fish Soup - Manfred Mann's Earth Band

Sitting in a silent room

The walls around me screaming

Rely on nothing wait on no-one

Standing between light and dark

Watch the mirrors gleaming

Shine on nothing showing no-one

Drowning on dry land

Cast adrift on an empty sea

Drowning on dry land

Put aside with the will to be Stranded at the break of dawn

And where the story’s ending

Tells of nothing hearing no-one

I stand without a word to say

The silent room is empty

Sings of nothing changing no-one

Drowning on dry land

Cast adrift on an empty sea

Drowning on dry land

Put aside with the will to be
