Riptide
This song is the only one which has been officially "performed" - it was the one I chose as my final project for music college.
Sand
and shells are living on the beach
And
I'm a'walkin' along in the cold grey mornin'.
Spied
a pretty missy skippin out a'reach
And
I'm a'callin to her “Can I come along?”
Foam
and mist are streamin' from her hair
And
her eyes so green like the ocean water.
Turns
to me and whispers in my ear
"Come
on and play with me till the day is done.”
Chorus:
She
come in on a riptide and here she'll stay
Until
the water takin' her home again.
She'll
come in on a riptide and here she'll stay
Until
the water takin' her home.
Suddenly
my world is lookin' fine.
I've
got a nice surprise as the day is dawnin'.
While
I'm with the lovely lady from the brine
I
won't be doin' no work – gonna just have fun.
Laugh
and dance without a single care.
Having
the time of my life with a Neptune's daughter.
Raise'a
my soul from depths of bleak despair.
Give
me strength to cope with the modern world.
Chorus
