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 seafish 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
