Seagulls |
| She left St. John's one day in May |
| Dressed in her Sunday best |
| A kind man sat beside her |
| While she cried her way out West |
| She moved in with her cousin |
| Found a job down in the mall |
| Her friends at home were jealous |
| Said they’d see her in the fall |
| You know that she wants to try, |
| never lets you see her cry |
| You know that she wants to try, |
| she’s got seagulls in her eyes |
| The people here seem really nice |
| But the winter’s way too long |
| New friends, they don’t understand |
| Her mother wrote 'be strong' |
| She made some decent money |
| But nothing comes for free |
| The windy street, just can’t compete |
| With the sky, the rocks and sea |
| Her parents came at Eastertime |
| They wanted her to stay |
| But she bought a panel van |
| Moved home on her birthday |
| Her friends were pretty cynical |
| 'Couldn't make it on your own…' |
| Now the sky’s a little smaller |
| And it doesn’t seem like home |
