Lyrics"Shoreline Miles"
Music & Lyrics by Scott Cooley.
I’ve been in one place for too long it’s true Ever since that fateful day last June When I lost her for good, all because of a boat I thought she’d like to sail, but she just wasn’t made to float I’ve been logging shoreline miles, walking the beach Tryin’ to find a new love since I lost mine at sea Shoreline miles, it’s safer on foot Now I’m a wandering soul who just can’t stay put The wind picked up, and we got cold and wet She got seasick, the boom hit her in the head Then I ran it aground, had to call the coast guard Had to pay for the tow with her credit card I’ve been logging shoreline miles, walking the beach Tryin’ to find a new love since I lost mine at sea Shoreline miles, it’s safer on foot Now I’m a wandering soul who just can’t stay put Sold the boat last fall, the winter’s been so long Thought she’d take me back, but I couldn’t have been more wrong I thought I’d miss her, but I miss the boat even more Now spring is here and I’ve taken to the shore I learned my lesson: never sail on a date She called it off in a storm, so it must’ve been fate A bad decision, one I’ll never make again Now I’m a land lover, hallelujia, amen I’ve been logging shoreline miles, walking the beach Tryin’ to find a new love since I lost mine at sea Shoreline miles, it’s safer on foot Now I’m a wandering soul who just can’t stay put Copyright © ℗ 2006 by Scott Cooley.
