Gulf Shores |
It was hard enough to climb upon |
It was slow going at first |
Sister, you have laid long in the sun |
Aren’t you dying of thirst? |
Oh I see your suit is candy striped |
And your legs are long and slim |
If I whisper nothing’s in your ear |
Will you pass them on to him? |
You have laid here by the waterside |
Since the day we came to town |
Have you thought that you could waste away? |
You don’t care much for yourself |
There are circles deep beneath your eyes |
Why do you do this to yourself? |
If you like, we two could take a ride |
I would love to take you down |
We could watch a blue heron in flight |
We could see the sights in town |
You have laid here by the waterside |
You have let the family down |
A cold and fruity drink awaits us both |
Watch me frolic in the sand |
O did you see me in the surf |
With a starfish in my hand? |
Soon the restaurants will open up |
Soon the bars will light their lights |
You have aged, you must start looking up |
Ugly things will come tonight |
We could drive down to another beach |
Even tan your skin seems white |
All our friends have gone away from here |
So let’s disappear from sight |
