Sea of Tranquility Songtext

von Gordon Lightfoot

I live in the light of the bright silver moon, I'll take you off sailing from midnight till noon.
I'll show the Sea of Tranquility, you can have any flavor you happen see.
I live in the shade of a forest of green in the wildest of woodlands that you've ever seen.
There's rabbits and quail and tender young snails as brown as the seaweed on old rusty nails.

There's fireflies dancing in the cool evening breeze,
There's love and romancing as nice as you please.
There's otters and frogs and spotted ground hogs and wily old weasels in rotted out logs.

There's rivers of rainbow and grey mountain trout
And little dark holes where the varmints hang out.
There's foxes and hares in traps and in snares and lots of bald eagles so you'd better take care.

So if you've got the time and you'd like to pass by,
Come down around midnight and give us a try.
We'll show you the Sea of Tranquility, you can have any flavor you happen to see.
