Lee shore

Lee shore Lyrics

David Crosby



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 my sin

Winking up like shining eyes at me, from the sea

Here is one like sunrise older than you know

It's still lying there where some careless wave

Forgot it long ago

When I awoke this morning

Dove beneath my floating home

Down below her graceful side

In the turning tide

To watch the sea fish roam

And there I heard a story

From the sailors of the Sandra Marie

There's another isle a days' run away from here

It's empty and free

From here to Venezuela 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 tales

But perhaps I'll see you the next quiet place

I furl my sails
