The Sea and the Sand - Lake Orchard

Here by the sea and sand Nothing ever goes as planned I just couldn't face going home It was just a drag on my own They finally threw me out My mother got drunk on stout My dad couldn't stand on two feet As he lectured about morality Now I guess the families complete With me hanging round on the street Or here on the beach The girl I love Is a perfect dresser Wears every fashion Gets it to the tee Heavens above I got to match her She knows just how She wants her man to be Leave it to me My jacket's gonna be cut slim and checked Maybe a touch of seersucker with an open neck I ride a G.S. scooter with my hair cut neat I wear my wartime coat in the wind and sleet I see her dancing Across the ballroom UV light making star shine Of her smile I am the face She has to know me I'm dressed up better than anyone Within a mile So how come the other tickets look much better? Without a penny to spend they dress to the letter How come the girls come on oh so cool Yet when you meet 'em, every one's a fool? Come sleep on the beach Keep within my reach I just want to die with you near I'm feeling so high with you here I'm wet and I'm cold But thank God I ain't old Why didn't I ever say what I mean? I should have split home at fifteen There's a story that the grass is so green What did I see? Where have I been? Nothing is planned, by the sea and the sand

In an endless sea with you Sailing under the rain The only colour of my blues Is made of dust and sand Driftin' It's every day the same Clouds pass me by And I'm bound to take my time Until I find you The wind may send me home to you Before the harvest starts again And if the light come shine on through Will you still recall my name? Driftin' It's every day the same Clouds pass me by And I'm bound to take my time Until I find you I've been here and almost everywhere I sailed the seven seas while you sat down on your chair You've been good to me And I've been good to you Lost in the hands of gravity Soon I'll get back to blue Driftin' It's every day the same Clouds pass me by And I'm bound to take my time Clouds pass me by And I'm bound to take my time Until I found you

Blue is the ocean Green is the sea And I chose between them They both chose me Painted black on my door I've ain't waiting for a cry to come by Give me a sign that I want more I anit sure if there's time If there's timeee Whoahhhh if there's time Come light the day your sun starts to wake my eyes Bless my eyes Soon hesitate on my sold or? way on my soul Woahh on my soul x2 Who do I ought to blame You and I are the same Since you're older now Who do I ought to blame You and I are the same Since you're older now Yeah you're older now Yeah you're older nowww nowww On my soul nowww nowww On my soul

Don't taint this ground With the colour of the past Are the sounds in bloom with you Cos you seem like an ORCHARD OF MINES Just take one step at a time Oh And you seem to break like time So fragile on the inside You climb these grapevines Would you look now Unto this pit of me on the ground And you wander through these To climb these grapevines, Vines I'll say it to be proud Won't have my life turned upside down Says the man with some gold forged plan Of life so incomplete Like weights strapped around my feet Tread careful one step at a time Oh And you seem to break like time So fragile on the inside You climb these grapevines Would you look now Unto this pit of me on the ground And you wander through these To climb these grapevines To know to feel to play me once again Do you denote from what we feel Do you not know I see you've played the game Do you denote Can you feel once again You feel YOU! To know to feel to play me once again Do you denote from what we feel Do you not know I see you've played the game Do you denote Can you feel once again You feel YOU!
