Down By The Sea

Down by the sea                                 I found your hidden treasure                Just you and me                            We overdosed on pleasure                      Yonnies in the wind                            We’re ruggin’ up for winter                        Putting out the bins                              In cold and windy weather                      Down by the docks                            Live all the silent sea-ships                     Crates are stored on blocks                            Where now only the rats    live                    Sail me down the river Till we reach the shore Diving into the cen - ter Eating out the core Down on the beach Saluting Captain Benbow Always out of reach It’s quiet when the tide’s low Climbing up the cliffs You can see for miles far The boat that ran adrift Is sitting on the sandbar Laughing at the waves That storm the river mouth The ice   is on the move now Creeping north and south Down by the sea I found your hidden treasure Just you and me We over-dosed on pleasure Listen to your heart Screamin’ at the sky Can’t you feel it tremble? Don’t you wonder why?
