Bathed in light Carried by waves Follow the stars The good lord saves Fashion a craft Trust in the sea Some crazy wind Will blow you to me Slow in returning By sail or by steam Lessons we’re learning Which help us to speed A course has been charted Landfall is seen Some crazy wind Will blow you to me Some crazy wind Filled your sails and blew you to me Some crazy wind Filled your sails and blew you to me

My Blue Sky 03:58
I have seen all those pretty faces I have heard all those pretty lies I have lost at the races I have flown up on high And I say hey My blue sky And I say hey My blue sky I like it when you wear that white dress I like the way it hangs on your thighs I like to watch you dance in the moonlight And when the sun is shining in your pretty eyes And I say hey My blue sky And I say hey My blue sky Lola makes a rum punch She calls it the old one two I think maybe I’ll have three or four And spend some time sitting right here talking to you And I say hey My blue sky And I say hey My blue sky

I want to hear your voice I want to feel your breath On the back of my neck as I undo your dress And the sun goes down And the world turns round Its alright baby I’ll always be here with you I want to hear you softly calling out my name Through an open window in the summer rain And the thunder sounds And the rain comes down It's alright baby I'll always be here for you Love comes in waves Lives we have made Feelings won't fade These moments we save I want to see you walking on a sandy beach Your dress moving slowly in a gentle breeze And your hair is down And your skin is brown It’s alright baby I'll always be here with you Time rolls along Feelings grow strong Our hearts can't be wrong We're where we belong I want to chase you down and sweep you off your feet Pull you close and whisper soft and sweet As the sun goes down In this beachfront town It’s alright baby I’ll always stay here with you Tonight baby all of my love is for you

Rosa girl in a party dress Rosa girl your hairs a mess Muchachos spin you round and round Rosa girl gonna paint this town El Mocambos open all night long Compadres come and dance along Tequila in a paper cup Come in and soak it up Senoritas y cervezas Lying under the mesa Oh, my aching cabeza Honey, won’t you take me home Sister Mary smiles and taps her foot Holds up the table with her little black book Flora de Cana con limon C’mon people and sing along Take off your hats and stay awhile All it takes is a little smile Kick the sand right out of your shoes You’ve got nothing to lose And they’re singing And they’re dancing Everybody’s romancing Sun is shining keep on smiling And let go On the beach under a golden moon So sad you have to leave so soon I’ll remember this night for days Let’s put a smile on that pretty face Silver gold and tequila shine Hear the music flow like wine Everybody has such a good time And it all tastes better with lime Yes it all tastes better with lime Senoritas y cervezas Lying under the mesa Oh, my aching cabeza Honey, won’t you take me home Lord I don’t want to go home

Behind the sand dunes out beyond the pier You’ll hear a quiet voice if you get near The crackle of the static from an old C.B. A hurricane lantern swaying in the ocean breeze His hut was made of old abandoned longboards Sand and shells spread all over the floor A picture of a tanned young girl hanging on the door A letter sealed with a kiss sometime before the war Firelight starlight drifts on by Moonlight tonight when you close your eyes A light in the distance to set your bearings by A star in the heavens on a warm and cloudless night On a lone hilltop you can find the love he lost Beneath the sand and a driftwood cross Some nights it’s the rhythm of the sea The wind blowing softly through the trees Rain falling heavy on an old tin roof The fading sound of laughter from a smoke filled room To find his beach you walk out at the ebb of the tide When the sea is quiet and the moon is high A light in the distance to set your bearings by A star in the heavens on a warm and cloudless night On a lone hilltop you can find the love he lost Beneath the sand and a driftwood cross There’s a shadow that he talks to now and then Voices in the trees he calls friends A mist on the shoreline floats across the sand The spirit of a girl walks by and slips right through his hands The warm wind whispers in his ear and he’s back with her again Sometimes you gain in blessings what you bargain for with loss Take a moment bow your head for those you have lost A light in the distance to set your bearings by A star in the heavens on a warm and cloudless night On a lone hilltop you can find the love he lost Covered in flowers and Spanish moss Beneath the sand and a driftwood cross

Darling I confess I hide my loneliness Though I don’t harbour you ill will You reside inside me still You cloud my mind and eyes With dreams of paradise I don’t think I will survive Another silent night I’ll lie down with you Tonight I’ll lie down with you I’m the king of Arizona I will dry your tears tonight I’ll lay you down in a bed of flowers That bloom in the night Bloom in the night Softly sighs the breeze Your name among the leaves As the day destroys the night The heat begins to rise A fire beneath the ash A calm that could not last The sands cannot disguise The shape of loves demise I’ll lie down with you Tonight I’ll lie down with you I’m the king of Arizona I will dry your tears tonight I’ll lay you down in a bed of flowers That bloom in the night Bloom in the night

Sail Away 03:45
I've been thinking about you lately I even wrote your name in the sand The tide is in the sun is up Coffee’s cooling in my cup It's time for me to leave dry land The wind is coming up from the southwest I'll loose the outhaul on the downwind run The sails are flying as they should When I'm on a course made good I can see my landfall and the golden sand Sail away Off to some forgotten bay Where the water’s calm the sand is warm A peaceful shelter from the storm Maybe I’ll just sail away Remember that cold Christmas in New England We watched the moonlight shining through the trees We slept under a bed of down Snowflakes falling all around I kept you warm until we had to leave Sail away Off to some forgotten bay Where the water’s calm the sand is warm A peaceful shelter from the storm Maybe I’ll just sail away Now we stow our gear and set out on the ocean Dive into the crystal blue sea Our bodies moving with the waves Drifting like the plans we made Out on the water’s where we were meant to be Sail away Maybe off to some forgotten bay Where the water’s clear the sand is warm A peaceful shelter from our storms You and I can sail away

Maria 03:27
Girl when we were younger We’d spend all our summers Swimming in the ocean and lying in the sand How I miss those gentle days Your loving smile your warm embrace I would give up anything to go back where we began Oh Maria how I’d like to see you Sitting on the grass outside my door Oh Maria how I long to see you And kiss your smiling face again once more I was blind I know it Far too young to show it Always making little earthquakes starting little wars You were never angry Always standing right beside me Fighting off the spells and curses I brought to our door Oh Maria how I’d like to see you Sitting in the sun outside my door Oh Maria how I want to feel you Lying in my arms again once more You know I want you near me in the morning when it’s cold outside Feel your gentle breath upon my skin so soft and warm Our love is never ending because you keep on sending Me love that will not fade anymore You reached across the water Said you had a daughter Who liked to swim out in the sea as we did before I wish I could regain your hand Take you from that foreign land Walk with you across the sand Down to the golden shore Oh Maria how I’d like to see you Walking up the stairs to my front door Oh Maria you know how much I need you Come back and let me hold you close once more

Lovers stay a while then they pass Photos fade beneath the glass All our firsts never last They’ve gone away You wish you could erase the past Hide behind a youthful mask Time moves too slow then too fast And flies away If these old stars would line up perfectly I’d find a way to let myself be free If these old stars would shine eternally I’d find a way to where I’m meant to be Feelings lift you up then pull you down Memories of sights and sounds More are lost than are found They fade away You startle at the slightest sound Your heart and mind so tightly wound You’ve come undone yet still feel bound To drift away If these old stars would line up perfectly I’d find a way to where I'm meant to be If these old stars would shine eternally I’d find a way to let myself be free If these old stars would line up perfectly I’d find a way to where I’m meant to be If these old stars would shine eternally I’d find a way to give in gracefully
