Sanibel

[Verse 1]
There's a ship
And it sails a sea of light
On its way to me tonight
From a distant shore
Taking me home once more
And the waves
And the whistling of the wind
Make me come alive again
My destiny's at my door

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Going to leave this town forever
And go where I'll never
Need an overcoat no more
Where they cry

[Chorus]
Ooh la la la la, every night and every day
Sitting by the Gulf coast just a thousand miles away
Where they cry
Ooh la la la la, on an island I will dwell
Starlit nights in paradise on the isle of Sanibel

[Verse 2]
There's a girl
And I see her dressed in white
As she lies there in the night
I can hear her cry
Where has he gone and why
But she knows
That someday he will arrive
And it keeps her love alive
Dreams can never die

[Pre-Chorus 2]
She looks across the ocean
At sails in motion
In the early morning sky
Where they cry

[Chorus]
Ooh la la la la, every night and every day
Sitting by the Gulf coast just a thousand miles away
Where they cry
Ooh la la la la, on an island I will dwell
Starlit nights in paradise on the isle of Sanibel

[Bridge]
Angels of the water, sirens of the sea
Whispering there sweet love songs
Calling out to me

[Chorus]
Ooh la la la la, every night and every day
Sitting by the Gulf coast just a thousand miles away
Where they cry
Ooh la la la la, on an island I will dwell
Starlit nights in paradise on the isle of Sanibel

[Outro]
Spend my life in paradise on the isle of Sanibel
