On The Beach - Dirty Projectors

[Verse 1]
On the beach
The sun bleached the gathered forms
With coats and ties and sighs all formal
They waited for me
Blackened backs facing

[Chorus]
I waited for their formation to break
As a welcoming smile breaks
And is disarming
I waited for their hail

[Verse 2]
But the committee did not turn
I grew aware that they knew that I was there
Worry talks but no one can
Worry talks but no one can

[Chorus]
I waited for their formation to break
As a welcoming smile breaks
And is disarming
I waited for their hail
I waited for their hail
