Lyrics
Down on the waterfront
In the haze of the neon lights
Kathleen's staring into the mirror
Like she's looking back into her life
There isn't one thing she wouldn't give
To get up and sail away
Everyone chasing their own special dream
Everyone trying to escape
Kathleen, there'll come a time
There's a light on the water, gonna sail off tonight
The fog's rolling in, you can hear the horn blow
Your ship's coming in from the Barbary Coast
Maybe there'll come a time
When the strife and the fighting will end
And Kathleen's sailing into the harbour
To pick up the pieces again
Whispering voices out on the wind
That drift through the night on the Bay
Everyone chasing their own special dream
Everyone trying to escape
Kathleen, there'll come a time
There's a light on the water, gonna sail off tonight
The fog's rolling in, you can hear the horn blow
Your ship's coming in from the Barbary Coast
Kathleen, there'll come a time
There's a light on the water, gonna sail off tonight
The fog's rolling in, you can hear the horn blow
Your ship's coming in from the Barbary Coast
Kathleen, there'll come a time
There's a light on the water, gonna sail off tonight
The fog's rolling in, you can hear the horn blow
Your ship's coming in from the Barbary Coast
