Tasty Tunes [Songs] - Originals

Lyrics:

After three days of being lost at sea,
I ran ashore to rocky beach.
I met a girl with long brown hair,
Living alone down Mailbox Road.

She told me she had found happiness,
Took a deep breath, and said, "I'll tell you my story."
A year ago I left home,
And I wasn't looking back...

From a family of thirteen kids,
Had a drunk for a dad, and nobody to save me.
Had no money, so I stole a boat.
Learned to sail and went up the coast.

Had left this world behind,
Get a fresh start, gonna take my time.
On a fall day a storm rolled in,
Crashed on these rocks and been here ever since.

I built this home out of pieces of driftwood,
Everything's provided and it comes from nothing.
In between these two you've got something,
If you close your eyes...

You can hear the music play.

I spent the night, and it turned to a week.
I tried to leave, but my attempts to flee,
Were met with waves crashing down on me.
I waved goodbye to society.

I never meant to stay so long,
For years restrained under the Devil's thumb.
Couldn't cross the river for the water's too high,
Forging away I nearly lost my life.

I built this home out of pieces of driftwood,
Everything's provided and it comes from nothing.
In between these two you've got something,
If you close your eyes...

You can hear the music play.

The winter had set in and I wanted to quit.
Jump in that river to never surface.
The kings will find the Coho in the trees.
There's a look in you eye that never leaves.

A window to the world is a new sunrise.
For every low tide there's a Scoter in flight.
Built a fire and I watched burn,
And then the moon came out...

And I understood.

I built this home out of pieces of driftwood,
Everything's provided and it comes from nothing.
In between these two you've got something,
If you close your eyes...

I built this home out of pieces of driftwood,
Everything's provided and it comes from nothing.
In between these two you've got something,
If you close your eyes...

You can hear the music play.
