Thinking of Shore

from Darling, oh Darling by Miss Tess

/

lyrics

There’s a man sailing around
Never on ground
Can never be found
And sometimes his sails get lost in the gails
Of a thunderstorm
And now he’s drowning at sea
Just hoping to be
Rescued somehow

But the waiting is long
And soon he’ll be gone
He knew all along this was true
His life boat is sinking
Saltwater he’s drinking
He must not be thinking of shore…

And now he’s under the waves
Too late to be saved
He’s falling down
He puts out his hand
And touches the sand
Of the ocean floor

But the waiting is long
And soon he’ll be gone
He knew all along this was true
His life boat is sinking
Saltwater he’s drinking
He must not be thinking of shore…
