Flocking ...to the sea,

Worries vanish ...within my dream!

I left my soul there, down by the sea,
A G Bm E7sus2
I lost control here-----, living free,

I left my soul there, down by the sea,
A G Bm
I lost control here-----, living free-----!

Just you and I ...walk along the pier!

A cool breeze flows, but mind the wasp,
