Off Shore

(album: Like It Is Like It Was - 1970)

Off shore
Out where the sun sets
Far, into the night
Lights will turn to shadows
As the ship with my dreams fades out of sight

When the swallow comes back
Til after this thunder
That's the day I will return from

Off shore
Deep into darkness
You, come into view
Out there on our island
Smiling at me through the haze in the blue

My misty eyes will always be crying for you
My empty arms will regret the day they let you go
My lonely heart will always be sighing for you
Darling you should know that I miss you so

Off shore
That's where my heart goes
Far across the sea
Soon we'll be together
Till then always look off shore for me

My misty eyes will always be crying for you
My empty arms regret the day they let you go
My lonely heart will always be sighing for you
Darling you should know that I miss you so (My darling)

My misty eyes will always be crying for you
My empty arms regret the day they let you go
My lonely heart will always be sighing for you
Darling you should know that I miss you so
