Janis Ian - Sea And Sand lyrics

Goodbye to the sea and sand And my only man, goodbye And why should I take your hand When you've left me here to die I don't know why Buy me a silver lion's tail To wrap around my eyes Why am I standing here Watching you fail When I've spent all my life All my dreams So goodbye From my window grows a tree All the people come to stare at me Don't you see? I've got to leave today Or I never will be gone To leave today Or I never will come To the sea and the sun again Goodbye to the sea and sand And my only man, goodbye And why should I take your hand When you've left me here to die I don't know why Buy me a silver lion's tail To wrap around my eyes And why am I standing here Watching you fail When I've spent all my life All my dreams So goodbye
