Lee Shore lyrics

Wheel gull spin and glide

You've got no place to hide

'Cause you don't need one

All along the lee shore

Shells lie scattered in the sand

Winking up like shining eyes, at me

From the sea

Here is one like sunrise

It's older than you know

It's still lying there where

Some careless wave

Forgot it long ago

When I awoke this morning

I dove beneath my floating home

Down below her graceful side

In the turning tide

To watch the sea fish roam

There I heard a story

From the sailors of the Sandra Marie

There's another island a

Day's run away from here

And it's empty and free

From here to Venezuela

There's nothing more to see

Than a hundred thousand islands

Flung like jewels upon the sea

For you and me

Sunset smells of dinner

Women are calling at me to end my tails

But perhaps I'll see you,

The next quiet place

I furl my sails
