Can you imagine the beach at night? I dream each day Each fleeting day The seagulls would stop cryin’ And they would be asleep Nary a soul would be in sight But for the lone guy on the beach The rocks to the right Cast terrifying shadows And their moonlit surfaces seem like Ghasts of night The waves pound in my head Thud, thud, thud A wave comes in And smashes ‘gainst those pale sharp rocks It claims some sand And retreats again Back to the depths of the lake I would trail my feet along the sand, To greet the rhythmic sea The wave comes in again And splashes at my feet With the coolness of the water The crispness of the air I unfurl my wings and fly away Leaving everything behind

The Beach
Can you imagine the beach at night? I dream each day Each fleeting day The seagulls would stop cryin’ And they would be asleep Nary a soul would be in sight But for the lone guy on the beach The rocks to the right Cast terrifying shadows And their moonlit surfaces seem like Ghasts of night The waves pound in my head Thud, thud, thud A wave comes in And smashes ‘gainst those pale sharp rocks It claims some sand And retreats again Back to the depths of the lake I would trail my feet along the sand, To greet the rhythmic sea The wave comes in again And splashes at my feet With the coolness of the water The crispness of the air I unfurl my wings and fly away Leaving everything behind
