Sea And Sand

Goodbye to the sea and sand

and my only man, goodbye

And why should I take your hand

when you've left me here to die

I don't know why

Buy me a silver lion's tail

to wrap around my eyes

Why am I standing here

watching you fail

when I've spent all my life

all my dreams

So goodbye

From my window grows a tree

All the people come to stare at me

Don't you see?

I've got to leave today,

or I never will be gone

To leave today

or I never will come

to the sea and the sun again

Goodbye to the sea and sand

and my only man, goodbye

And why should I take your hand

when you've left me here to die

I don't know why

Buy me a silver lion's tail

to wrap around my eyes

And why am I standing here

watching you fail

when I've spent all my life,

all my dreams

So goodbye
