One day you will come to Montauk And you will see your dad wearing a kimono And see your other dad pruning roses Hope you won't turn around and go One day you will come to Montauk And see your dad playing the piano And see your other dad wearing glasses Hope that you will want to stay For a while Don't worry, I know you laughed it out One day you will come to Montauk And see your dad trying to be funny And see your other dad seeing through me Hope that you will protect your dad One day you will come to Montauk And see your dad trying to be evil One day you will come to Montauk And see your other dad feeling lonely Hope that you will protect him You have stayed Don't worry, I know you have to go One day, years ago in Montauk Lived a woman, now a shadow But she does wait for us in the ocean And although you want to stay For a while Don't worry, we all have to go One day you will come to Montauk
