Tales of the islander |
|
Tales of you and me |
|
Floating on our raft |
|
Down the Mother Mississippi |
|
Caught myself a fever |
|
Took a hospital stay |
|
Tied some sheets together |
|
Crawled down and was on my way |
|
I was on my way |
|
Let's take to the water |
|
Let our bodies roam free |
|
No more taste or smell |
|
No hear nor see |
|
Then greet the morning star |
|
As we dance along the beach |
|
Embrace this mighty sunrise |
|
As the cranes fly to meet it |
|
Cranes rise to meet it |
|
Birds call to me |
|
They call |
|
They call to me |
|
They call so deep |
|
Got to feel it all |
|
No time for sleep |
|
No time at all |
|
When they call |
|
They call to me |
|
They call so deep |
|
Got to feel it all |
|
No time for sleep |
|
No time at all |
|
We found a paradise |
|
And its own garden gate |
|
Adam in a hat on a rowboat |
|
Phosphorescence in the wake |
|
The squall has passed |
|
And we're tied to the decay |
|
One day may the hurricanes come |
|
And carry us away |
|
Carry us away |
|
Waves call to me |
|
They call |
|
They call to me |
|
They call so deep |
|
Got to feel it all |
|
No time for sleep |
|
No time at all |
|
When they call |
|
They call to me |
|
They call so deep |
|
Got to feel it all |
|
No time for sleep |
|
No time at all |
|
Give me a sunset |
|
Of lilac, gold and green gray skies |
|
I'll give you spirals and zig zag lines |
|
It's the magic hour of a halcyon day |
|
And all of mankind stands there |
|
Barely awake |
|
A full moon rising |
|
On all of nature's powers |
|
Stars just observers |
|
Of zinnias and moonflowers |
|
We could bathe in the nullah of a gulf stream |
|
Prowl like cats in the night |
|
Then transform like moths |
|
In a chrysalis of light |
|
Chrysalis of light |
|
Moths call to me |
|
They call |
|
They call to me |
|
They call so deep |
|
Got to feel it all |
|
No time for sleep |
|
No time at all |
|
When they call |
|
They call to me |
|
They call so deep |
|
Got to feel it all |
|
No time for sleep |
|
No time at all |
|
When they call |
|
When they call |
