A Little Further North

Lyrics

The sun sinks behind me in the west This is the time of day I love best Salt breezes murmur through the coconut palm As the colors change, they set a scene of tropic calm Seagulls headed back to land Over the mangrove and the salt pan By a lazy creek with a six pack and a fishin' line Win back some memories and losin' track of time I head a little further north each year Leave the cities behind, out of sight out of mind Up where my troubles can all disappear I head a little further north each year Feeling the night wrap around me Eases my mind's serenity Ocean waves are hummin' on the outer reef These balmy days and sultry nights are a welcome relief I head a little further north each year Leave the cities behind, out of sight out of mind Up where my troubles can all disappear I head a little further north each year I head a little further north each year Taking my mind to an easier time Up where there's silence and the night sky is clear I head a little further north each year
