Sanibel Songtext

von Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

There's a ship and it sails a sea of light
On its way to me tonight
From a distant shore, taking me home once more

And the waves and the whistling of the wind
Make me come alive again
My destiny's at my door

Going to leave this town forever
And go where I'll never
Need an overcoat no more, where they cry

Oohhlalalala, every night and every day
Sitting by the gulf coast just a thousand miles away
Where they cry
Oolalaalla, on an island I will dwell
Starlit nights in paradise on the isle of Sanibel

There's a girl and I see her dressed in white
As she lies there in the night, I can hear her fry
Where has he gone and why?

But she knows that someday he will arrive
And it keeps her love alive
Dreams can never die

She looks across the ocean
At sails in motion
In the early morning sky, where they cry

Oohlala....

Angels of the water, sirens of the sea
Whispering their sweet love songs
Calling out to me

Oohlala.....
